For the same reason, I loved Dorothy Simpson\u2019s Luke Thanet series. Neither are \u201ccozies,\u201d really, but they are more personal than, say, a police procedural.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Can anyone recommend other mysteries that do this?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Please post a comment if you have any recommendations.
