Mrs. Jeffries & The Yuletide Weddings

Book 26 in a long UK murder mystery series. I like the concept - the upstairs, downstairs of it all. The servants for a detective help him solve crimes. It had potential, but it dragged on and on. I just couldn't get into it. Amazon writes, "The week before Christmas, Inspector Gerald Witherspoon's staff prepares for the long-awaited wedding of Betsy and Smythe. But when a middle-aged spinster is killed in what looks like a random crime, the Inspector suspects otherwise. With uncooperative witnesses, sulking relatives, and a second Christmas wedding, a simple investigation seems as unlikely as catching St. Nick at work." All in all, I say: SKIP IT unless you love British, slow mysteries.
