There has to be a way to write mysteries that aren't about murders that aren't quite as high on the coziness quotient as Aunt Dimity. Like Possession! Except a whole series of like twenty books, so the individual books would probably not be quite so intricately erudite.

That Lass O'Lowrie's was evidently HUGELY popular in its day - there's like an entire page of complimentary quotes from contemporary reviews at the back of the book - so there is some hope of finding a physical copy in the wild somewhere. If I do, I'll pass it on to you!
