The Cherringham series by Neil Richards and Matthew Costello is set in a picturesque village on the Thames where an ex-NYPD detective and a local web designer keep stumbling into murder. Starting with Murder on Thames in 2013, the series has grown to nearly 50 entries, making it one of the most prolific cozy mystery partnerships in recent years.
Each book is a quick, satisfying read with a fresh case. The English village setting and the chemistry between the two leads have kept readers coming back for over a decade. The series works well for anyone who enjoys light mysteries with British charm.
