This one sounds like my kind of mystery..removing this from the box, and will journal once its read.

Apparently one in a string of books that center around Inspector Henry Tibbett, Chief Superintendent of Scotland Yard, "Murder Fantastical" introduces The Manciple family, known eccentrics in the village of Cregwell who call in Tibbett to help them save their family home; It appears that the body of Raymond Mason, a social-climbing bookie with a mysterious interest in purchasing the Manciple estate, has been found dead in their driveway, from a bullet hole in his forehead. While the town sympathizes, as no one really liked Mason anyway, Tibbett must sift through George's determination to BE the chief suspect, Violet's chasing down every thought that comes to her mind, the Bishop's cryptic crossword-speak, and Aunt Dora's whistling hearing aid to find out who the real culprit is before anyone else gets hurt.

This was your typical 'British mystery', and I am a fan of this genre, but this book was even better than I had expected. Funny, engaging, and cleverly written, I was completely charmed by these characters, and will certainly look for other "Inspector Tibbett mysteries" to read in my future.
