The Good Wife by Jane A. Adams
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

1929. Spring Bank Holdiday. On duty Police surgeon Dr Clive Mason, is spending the day with his wife, and Dr Ephraim Phillips and his family, at Southwell Races. When Dr Mason is called to view a body of a female, who turns out to be his wife. Martha Mason who everyone believes to be a good wife and a model citizen, so why has she been murdered.
D.C.I. Henry Johnstone and D.S. Mickey Hitchins of Scotland Yard, are called in to investigate.
Although the fifth in the series this can easily be read as a standalone story.
An entertaining and well-written historical mystery, with a likeable style of writing and good plotting, plus the enjoyable interactions between the two main characters makes this a delightful read.
