Review: Death Behind Silent Walls

“Death Behind Silent Walls” is a quick cozy mystery with ample suspects and a strong, no-nonsense central character. 


Though resigned to her husband’s failings, Victoria Sedgewick was not expecting to be a widow so soon after the birth of their son. She becomes concerned after reflecting on her husband’s bizarre behavior right before he dropped dead in the nursery. Her suspicions grow as her father-in-law hires an inquiry agent to get to the truth of the matter. Not one to wait around, Victoria begins her own investigation. Will she solve the mystery or will the killer strike again?


I enjoy these shorter mysteries that have the flavor of a serial. I guess I get the same feeling as people who binge-watch TV shows. The pace is snappy and definitely episodic. Taken together, series such as this have a satisfying arc.


This story is great for readers who enjoy cozy mysteries and historical mysteries.
