The Lizzie Martin/Inspector Ben Ross series brings Ann Granger’s mystery-writing skills to Victorian London. A Rare Interest in Corpses (2006) begins the series, introducing Lizzie Martin and the Scotland Yard detective whose cases keep intersecting with her life. The ten books span nearly two decades of publication, through The Old Rogue of Limehouse (2023).
The Victorian setting gives Granger room to explore class, poverty, and the limitations placed on women, all wrapped in well-plotted mysteries.
