Praise for Patricia Wentworth:
I like Wentworth very much - she captures the mores of pre-war middle class England perfectly, and she writes rather better than Christie. They are romantic cosies, of course, but with an edge to them and an intelligence to the writing that has lasted.

Miss Wentworth is a first-rate storyteller
