Description
A Victorian murder mystery unfolds when the landlord of a local pub is found stabbed in the back. Inspector Witherspoon of Scotland Yard seeks to unravel the case, but it's Mrs Jeffries and the household staff who take charge, working to ensure that justice is served. As a policeman's widow with quick wits, Mrs Jeffries proves invaluable to the investigation. Her sharp observations and insight help nudge Inspector Witherspoon in the right direction, leading them closer to solving the crime. This charming mystery features a unique blend of amateur sleuthing and police procedural, set against the backdrop of Victorian England.
