So, I thought it might be an interesting theme to add &gt;&gt;&gt; \u00a0Cozy Mysteries where the sleuths are\u00a0two or more people who act as a mystery-solving team.<\/p>\n<p>By this I don&#8217;t mean series where the sleuth has a sidekick or gets a little help from others. I wouldn&#8217;t consider Sherlock Holmes stories, for example, to include multiple sleuths. Watson is more of a sidekick than a co-sleuth. Watson is so iconic, in fact, that the sidekick of a sleuth is often called &#8220;the Watson&#8221;. By co-sleuth, I mean that each person provides substantial input into finding the culprit (not just information such as a boyfriend or other relative who is on the police force might provide). I think Ann George&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Southern Sisters Mystery Series\u00a0<\/strong>is a pretty good example where there are two sleuths who are both equally involved in solving the mysteries &#8211; and where neither of the main characters is just a sidekick.<\/p>\n<p>Kylie Logan&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>League of Literary Ladies Mystery Series\u00a0<\/strong>is another example where the stories include the efforts of a whole book group of women to solve the mysteries.<\/p>\n<p>Can you think of any other sleuthing teams who work together equally?\u00a0If you know of any series where there are two or more (more or less equal sleuths) please add a comment below.<\/p>\n<h4>Cozy Mystery Series With Two (or More) Sleuths<\/h4>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cozy-mystery.com\/Kathy-Aarons.html\">Kathy Aarons<\/a>: Chocolate Covered Mystery Series<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cozy-mystery.com\/Isabella-Alan.html\"><strong>Isabella Alan<\/strong><\/a> (aka Amanda Flower)<strong>: Amih Quilt Shop Mystery Series<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cozy-mystery.com\/Susan-Wittig-Albert.html\">Susan Wittig Albert<\/a>: Darling Dahlias Mystery Series<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cozy-mystery.com\/Conrad-Allen.html\"><strong>Conrad Allen<\/strong><\/a> (aka Edward Marston and Keith Miles)<strong>: Dillman Mystery Series<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Kay-Driscoll-Mystery-Book\/dp\/B0198BR73E\/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1463876236&amp;sr=1-1&amp;keywords=Kay+Driscoll&amp;tag=httpwwwmarkes-20\">Susan Bernhardt<\/a>: Kay Driscoll Mystery Series<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cozy-mystery.com\/Simon-Brett.html\">Simon Brett<\/a>: Fethering Mystery Series<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cozy-mystery.com\/Emily-Brightwell.html\">Emily Brightwell<\/a>: Mrs Jeffries Mystery Series<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cozy-mystery.com\/Elizabeth-Lynn-Casey.html\"><strong>Elizabeth Lynn Casey<\/strong><\/a> (aka Laura Bradford)<strong>: Southern Sewing Circle Mystery Series<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cozy-mystery.com\/Chris-Cavender.html\"><strong>Chris Cavender<\/strong><\/a> (aka Jessica Beck, Elizabeth Bright, Melissa Glazer, Tim Myers, Casey Mayes, &amp; D.B.
