Inspired by the famous Girl Detective, the members of the Olentangy Heights Girls' Detective Society, affectionately known as the Nosy Parkers, spent their formative years studying criminology, codes, and capers. Unfortunately, opportunities to put their unique skills to work were thin on the ground in the post-war boom of their little corner of suburbia and they eventually grew up to pursue more sensible careers. Until...

Heather Munro’s youthful devotion to The Girl Detective led to a passion for digging around in history. Now pursuing her Master's Degree in Celtic Studies, Heather must balance exploring Edinburgh with her determination to excel in her all–male classes at the University. Unfortunately, on her first night working in the Archives room, she discovers the dead body of a visiting professor, the same would-be lothario she’d hoped never to see again.

As clues come to light, it’s clear someone hopes to frame Heather for the murder. Besides her quirky landlady, whom can she trust? How can she clear her name? The police and the American Consul have plenty of suspects, but only two seem to have both motive and opportunity: Heather and the quiet Scottish historian she longs to trust

Review

Set in Scotland this is a really great cozy mystery book. While it does take a little bit before the connection to the series is made that does not detract from what is really going on in the story. We get to follow Heather as she studies abroad for a year and finds a visiting American Professor dead (one it is believed she had an affair with though more research would have been useful to the gossips). As the main suspect Heather starts asking questions which of course puts her in danger. With the help of some wonderful supporting characters she is able to figure it all out in the end just in time. This is a great historical cozy mystery book that I highly recommend to fans of the genre. the writing really hooks the reader, the descriptions hit just the right touch, and the story moves at a pace that makes it really hard to put it down. i really enjoyed reading it so i give it 4/5 stars.
