Which English mystery would you like to read with us during March?

This time it's the turn of the golden age, which is always popular, so please place your nomination here. 😊

Who's going to kick this one off?

Bionic Jean (bionicjean) | 2932 comments Mod
Great idea! Although we call it "golden age", we can read earlier or classic fiction too. Thanks Pam.

Added, thanks. Let's have another one!

Lucia | 13 comments I nominate Trent's Last Case. Despite the title, it is the first in the series.

Great idea, thanks Lucia 😊

We still have room for another ...


message 10: by Rosemarie (new)

Rosemarie | 382 comments I'll nominate The Case of the Dead Diplomat by Basil Thomson.
I've already read two books by this author and this one sounds intriguing.

Great choice; thanks Rosemarie!

Tracey (traceyrb) | 25 comments Do you have room of another
The Hymn Tune Mystery by George A. Birmingham,


message 13: by Bionic Jean (new)

Bionic Jean (bionicjean) | 2932 comments Mod
Aw, that sounds good but apparently George A. Birmingham was born in Northern Ireland so is not eligible for a group read. And I've just spotted that John Rhode was born in Gibraltar, so neither is he! Eeek - sorry folks.

So we have room for another, or even two, if anyone would like to sneak one in on the last day.

Ellen | 227 comments Oh, well. I bet Cecil Street aka John Rhode thought he was English.


message 15: by Bionic Jean (new)

Bionic Jean (bionicjean) | 2932 comments Mod
Yes, probably!

Last call for nominations please.

I'll add the runner-up from last time.

Ellen, normally I'd have given you an extra day to think of another, but February is such a short month that the poll needs to be posted! Hopefully next time you'll get a book into our poll 😊
