Mydworth Mysteries
A COSY CRIME SERIES
Step into a world of glamour, charm… and danger
Follow Sir Harry Mortimer and his daring young American wife, Kat Reilly, as they solve crimes across 1920s England and far beyond. Blending glamour, wit and intrigue, Mydworth Mysteries is Agatha Christie meets Downton Abbey, but with added thrills and adventure.
The stories unfold in the picturesque village of Mydworth in Sussex - a place of cricket greens, country lanes and elegant manors.
But for Harry and Kat, it’s a setting that has everything but a “quiet country life”. Returning from a diplomatic posting in Cairo, the newly-weds’ lives are soon interrupted by crimes that require attention: everything from jewel robberies and blackmail to kidnap and murder. Together, they take on every case with charm, courage, quick thinking – and always humour…
Sir Harry Mortimer
Handsome, clever and modern-minded, Harry is a decorated war pilot and former diplomat whose intelligence work has taken him across Europe and the Middle East. Life behind a desk was never for him – solving crimes with Kat gives him the excitement he craves.
Lady Kat Reilly
Smart, independent, and intuitive, Sarah juggles life as a single mum of two while running her own digital design business in Cherringham. But when her sharp instincts lead her into local mysteries, she discovers a taste for sleuthing – and a friendship that changes everything.
