Mrs. Jeffries 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.

Thomas Mundy checks in to London’s Wrexley Hotel, but he never checks out. The maid finds him on the floor of his room, bludgeoned to death by his own walking stick.

Inspector Witherspoon is soon on the case and learns Mundy had a reputation for being polite, charming, and diligent - an unlikely victim for such a violent crime.

“…. As luck would have it, the inspector’s housekeeper, the inimitable Mrs. Hepzibah Jeffries, and her enthusiastic sleuthing crew are already on the case. While Witherspoon and Barnes interview hotel guests, such as two genteel ladies who saw Mundy in the lobby the evening of his demise, Mrs. Jeffries sends coachman Smythe, housemaid Phyllis, and others out to gather information, because they are, after all, the crime-solving power behind the somewhat clueless inspector. It soon becomes apparent that Mundy was a con artist with many victims who might have wanted him dead. A seemingly endless cast of characters muddies the waters in what is otherwise a most enjoyable addition to the series.” Publishers Weekly
