Mrs. Jeffries Defends Her Own by Emily Brightwell

She keeps house for Inspector Witherspoon . . . and keeps him on his toes. Everyone's awed by his Scotland Yard successes-but they don't know about his secret weapon. No matter how messy the murder or how dirty the deed, Mrs. Jeffries's polished detection skills are up to the task . . . proving that behind every great man there's a woman-and that a crimesolver's work is never done. When the general office manager of Sutcliffe Manufacturing is murdered, no one is really surprised. Ronald Dearman was anything but a dear man. The tyrannical bully had more than enough enemies to go around. But who hated him enough to walk into his office and put a bullet between his eyes? For once, Inspector Gerald Witherspoon doesn't get the case; it's given to another inspector. Then someone from Mrs. Jeffries' past-someone she'd hoped to never see again-shows up and begs for her help. Now Mrs. Jeffries must step into the fray and stop a terrible miscarriage of justice . . .

Emily Brightwell has written thirty Inspector Witherspoon and Mrs. Witherspoon books. Jeffries has a lot of books.
