Inspector Lintott Mysteries (3 book series)
Kindle Edition
From Book 1: Love historical crime? Discover a new series of classic mysteries perfect for fans of Sherlock Holmes, Agatha Christie and Dorothy L Sayers…

What dark secrets lurk behind closed doors…?



Wimbledon, England, 1889



When Theodore Crozier is found dead the neighbourhood hopes the cause may be suicide, if only to spare further pain for both his dutiful wife Laura and beloved brother Titus.

However there is more to the matter – a whisper of murder…

Inspector John Joseph Lintott is sent in to investigate, and the further he delves into the mystery the more tangled it becomes.

Is Laura the pious, meek wife she appears to be? Could the rumours be true about her unnatural relationship with Titus?

Was Theodore Crozier murdered by someone in his household?



DEAR LAURA is the first crime thriller in a classic historical series, the Inspector Lintott Mysteries, a traditional British detective series set in Victorian London and packed full of suspense.

*** DEAR LAURA was nominated for the prestigious Edgar Allan Poe Mystery Award ***

‘Jean Stubbs has succeeded in that most difficult genre, the historical pastiche, with a novel of upper middle-class domestic death in late-Victorian England … Altogether, a highly successful small tour de force’ – Times Literary Supplement

‘I can’t think of a Victorian detective story writer, except perhaps Wilkie Collins, who contrived two such dazzling surprises in the same a narrative … there hasn’t been any more satisfying example of mystification-cum-revelation’ – The Financial Times

‘Who poisoned the paterfamilias? Unwinding that story reveals layer on layer of Victorian life. A read solid and rich as those seven-course dinners’ – The Times

Delightfully characterised late Victorian family murder mystery with atmosphere laid on thick and festering with Vice and Hypocrisy.’ – The Observer
