The Abbot Agency series is a series of mystery novels by British author Veronica Heley. Bea Abbot and her husband have been running a highly successful agency for many years – a detective agency for clients who feel unable to get the police involved. But when he falls ill and dies, she is pressured by her son – a Member of Parliament – to retire. Bea is so exhausted from the long years of nursing her husband that retirement is just what she needs. What she gets is a couple of troubled young lodgers, and an old friend knocking on her door, asking for help on yet another murder case.
Veronica Heley began her Abbot Agency series in 2007 with the novel False Charity. The series is currently ongoing. Below is a list of Veronica Heley’s Abbot Agency books in order of when they were first released (which is the same as their chronological order)
