2025 book 180

 Jessica Ellicot’s Murder in an English Village

This is the first book in the Beryl and Edwina series—Beryl being a famous American adventurer who comes to stay with her old school friend Edwina in her small English village. When she starts a rumor that they’re investigating something for the king, suddenly they’re under attack and there’s a murder! Is it related to a girl who went missing during the war? (This is set in 1920, but I actually thought it was set in the 1940s for a while lol.) Anyway, pretty good mystery, the pacing was a bit slow but I enjoyed the characters a lot. Will probably check back in on this series. B+.
