After a hiatus of 17 years, Brett resumes this charming series about a crime boss's widow who makes amends by assisting her late husband's old colleagues. A funeral leads Mrs. Pargeter to confront murderous gunrunners and shifty politicians as well as a bride-to-be and a fiancé with criminal intent. The coziest of cozy reads.
