An Agnes and Effie Mystery is a two-book cozy mystery series by Maia Chance: Bad Housekeeping (2017) and Bad Neighbors (2018). The series pairs two contrasting characters as amateur detectives, with their personality clashes adding comedy to the mystery-solving process.

The domestic-themed titles suggest mysteries rooted in everyday settings – homes, neighborhoods, and community life. The two-book format keeps things compact, and the Agnes and Effie dynamic gives the series its own character separate from Chance’s fairy tale and 1920s mystery books.
