Lady Matilda Investigates is Catherine Coles’ newest mystery series, launched in 2025 with The Case of the Deadly Dog Show and continuing with The Case at Hartcombe Head in 2026. The series introduces another female detective to Coles’ roster, this time with an aristocratic background.
The dog show setting of the first book signals the kind of distinctly British locations that Coles favors for her mysteries. Lady Matilda joins Martha Miller and Evelyn Christie as a Coles heroine who combines social access with sharp observational skills.
