Description
Using the pseudonym Rhys Bowen, Janet Quin-Harkin, a hugely prolific writer of young adult novels, writes several well-regarded cozy mystery series. While set in very different time periods and locales, these novels share in common vivid characterization of both people and places, whether they be Irishwomen in 19th century New York City or policemen in present-day rural Wales. Her protagonists are gently but piquantly well-described and individual, with compelling backstories and appealing personalities; secondary characters are also well-done. While Bowen is more focused on character, plots are also satisfyingly constructed.Start with: Murphy's Law (Historical Mystery); Evans Above (Contemporary Mystery)
