Book Review of Murder at the Chase: A locked room mystery set in 1950s England (A Langham and Dupre Mystery)

Nicely written but ultimately uninspired mystery. I found the two lovebirds at the center of the story a bit tiresome and don't plan to spend any more time with them reading other books in the series. Set in the 1950's I was disappointed to see some hints of homophobia, although it would have been true to the times. Oh, and this is not a locked-room mystery since the method in question is easily explained right after the room is examined.
