The Mydworth Mysteries by Neil Richards and Matthew Costello take place in a fictional Sussex town during the 1920s. A husband-and-wife detective team works together to solve crimes in a world of country estates, jazz-age glamour, and postwar tensions. The series started in 2019 and now has 19 books.

Each mystery is self-contained enough to enjoy on its own, though the relationship between the two leads develops across the series. Readers who enjoy historical settings with their cozy mysteries will find Mydworth a good fit.
