When their mute gardener is murdered, the Darriby-Joneses find themselves in the middle of a mystery where the only clue is the muttered last words of the victim "polite man"

I loved this. Filled with witty dialog and quirky characters, it is mildly reminiscent of Tom Sharpe and dare I say PG Wodehouse.

A really fun cozy mystery that was dispatched in just the one sitting as I just couldn't put it down
