Mrs Pargeter's Patio
Mrs. Pargeter's Patio is the ninth book in the Mrs. Pargeter series, but it is the first book by Simon Brett that I have ever read.
You would think that starting a series at book 9 would be a handicap, and in some series that would be the case. Not so with this one. I had no trouble working out how the other characters came to be in Mrs. Pargeter's orbit, and what their roles had been when they first became acquainted with the late Mr. Pargeter.
Mrs. Pargeter's Patio is a cosy mystery set in modern times. Packed with loveable rogues, it is a humorous romp that had me hooked from the moment Mrs. Pargeter stepped onto her patio and made a shocking discovery.
I'll be adding the previous 8 books to my reading list.
Many thanks to Netgalley for sending me an eARC of this book in exchange for this review.
