Well liked they host seasonal events and often find themselves embroiled in unforeseen mysteries.  It is Summer and they are hosting the annual tennis tournament between Cavendish and the neighboring village of Charnley.  James is an avid mystery buff and enjoys his forays into these mysteries as they exercise his detective skills.  Invariably there is a death, strangers and a few known questionable characters involved.Following one of the matches there was a luncheon picnic type gathering of those who came to enjoy the match.  Chief Inspector George Lane did something against his usual request to James of to stay out of the investigation into a rash of jewel robberies that seemed to be moving from London down into Cavendish.  He wanted James to keep an eye out to anything unusual and report to him.  Bert, a long time friend of James' proposed a game of observation of the guest around the field.  Upon close observation their are a number of suspicious individuals.  Some homegrown and some not; some known and some a surprise.With guest at the manor house hotel and visiting family added to the mix of the robberies James has a lot to keep track of and with the help of Beth and his friends even murder will not keep James from solving this new mystery to come to his village.  Charming does not begin to describe the latest book in the Lord James Harrington Mystery series.  Set in a time after the end of WWII. when time was simpler and it was still safe to leave you door unlocked without fear, but times are changing even in the small village Cavendish.  Follow along as the good people of Cavendish work to bring peace and safety once more to their village.  Don;t be too quick to judge the people or you could be accusing the wrong one.I have read the previous two mysteries in this series and The Summer Mystery lives up to the standard set by the previous ones.  Lynn Florkiewicz involves you in both the lives of the villagers and the clues as the mystery as it evolves.  This is a stand alone book as the references to the previous books in no way influence the story line.  I would recommend that you download them because they are great cozy mysteries, and at less than $2.00 each they are priced well below their true value.  If you want a great read with well developed and established characters in a setting that anyone would love to live in.  Add in an ever changing mystery and you have the making of a wonderful afternoon of indulgence.Thank you for allowing me the privilege of reading and reviewing your latest installment of Lord James and his ongoing mysteries.  I look forward to seeing what happens during the Autumn time in Cavendish.  Good luck in your writing and I will be waiting for the next installment.
