Fiona Buckley recommends

A Murder By Any Name (2018)
(Elizabethan Spy Mystery, book 1)
Suzanne M Wolfe
"A classically plotted whodunit set against the background of Elizabethan London and the court of Queen Elizabeth the First, both of them well researched and vividly realized, with a wealth of detail. One can almost smell the reek of the 16th century streets and waterways."

Searcher of the Dead (2018)
(Bess Ellyott Mystery, book 1)
Nancy Herriman
"Well researched…The astonishing climax is a resourceful use of a little-known sixteenth century law."
