Setting: Gas giant in space, after humans destroyed earth. University town.
Language: a bit formal and the use of some obscure words, mostly to have fun so not too hard.
Story: It is a cozy yes, but it has murder and a bit of mayhem. Also a love story, a good one but it is a bit secondary?
Character: Holmes and Watson but this time, they are women and in love.

I really like the premise and the main characters' quirks. Interesting world building, believable plot, good supporting characters, and I enjoy the novella length. So on that I give if four stars - however the reader was well, flat and maybe undersold the humor or am I unfair? So I like this book, just not the audio-book reader's performance.

Setting: Contemporary England
Language: Straightforward word choices and enjoyable banter.
Characters: Most of the same crew appears with a new addition, Bob.
Story: Aside from the very enjoyable characters this is what you are here for. Drugs, antiques, murder most foul, and then some very poignant discussions of loneliness, aging, and dementia. Really these last three have Osman maybe doing his best writing yet?
