Since we weren't able to successfully identify the two authors Gayle and Susan would like identifying, I decided to lump them in with a third request. I sure hope that we can identify the three mystery authors…

Mystery Books Authors' Identities…
August 10, 2010
OK, Cozy Mystery site readers >>> I am (again!!!) asking for your help. I have received two requests for help in identifying two mystery series. (As you all know… since I have repeatedly written about it… When I started the site I ONLY had pages for authors I was familiar with… authors who I read and enjoyed. Now, however, with all of the recommendations from site readers about authors who they think belong on the site, I am no longer familiar with all of them. And, let's be honest… I would have to be a Summa Cum Laude graduate of the Evelyn Wood Speed Reading Course to have read all of the authors on the site!)

It's that time again when I ask for help in identifying authors for Cozy Mystery site readers. OK… I feel like I know this first author, but cannot seem to bring it to the front of my brain. So…
Hatfield House is the location used for the Miss Marple episode called The Secret of Chimneys:
The Old Palace was the home of Elizabeth I when she was a young child. Elizabeth's heir, James I, traded the Old Palace and its grounds for Robert Cecil's family home. Subsequently, Hatfield House was built by Robert Cecil, the first Earl of Salisbury. Today, the 7th Marquess and Marchioness of Salisbury call it home.

Mystery of the "They-Deserved-to-Die" Sisters…

I received a letter from Malinda asking for help. She is trying to identify an author of a mystery series who she read several years ago – with an Arsenic and Old Lace type-of-theme going. (By the way, if you haven't seen this Cary Grant movie that Frank Capra directed in 1941, but which wasn't released until 1944 >>> try to!)

We need help in identifying three mystery book authors>>>
1. Tracy has asked for help identifying this mystery book author:
"I'm trying to remember the series that takes place in late Victorian England say the 1900s. It's a husband and wife team. He is a policeman and the wife helps out along with a young, shy housekeeper? They have a couple of children and that's all I can remember. I thought I'd kept one of the books, but didn't and now I'm searching for the series so I can enjoy some more of their escapades."

Mystery of Author Who Writes Mystery Books…
February 21, 2010
This is a continuation of my entry from yesterday:
Don't get me wrong! It's not like I intentionally don't answer a site readers request for help. If someone writes and asks me about… let's say… Camille Minichino's Gloria Lamerino, Susan Wittig Albert's China Bayles, or Katherine Hall Page's Faith Fairchild, I will definitely write back (almost!) immediately. But, as I saw from my post on February 16, it took less than three hours for Barbara to come up with the mystery book author's mystery identity.
