Book series recommendation: The Charles Lennox Mysteries

 Here's a list of all the books in the series written by American author Charles Finch:

The series is set in London in the late nineteenth century. What I like about them are the four main characters, two men and their wives, and the fact that you learn something about the institutions and events of the time. 

Charles Finch might be American, but he did study in the UK for a short period of time and I have learnt a fair deal about that period in England just through reading his books. And this despite the fact that I have read a lot about the 19th century already.

A highly enjoyable series.
