Emma Jameson’s Lord & Lady Hetheridge Mysteries in Order

In some cases, we earn commissions from affiliate links in our posts.

If you enjoy a good cosy mystery, you may also enjoy the fun, cosy-adjacent Lord & Lady Hetheridge series by author Emma Jameson.

Instead of the usual amateur detective and isolated setting, these books feature a Chief Superintendent from Scotland Yard who works primarily in London. He also happens to be a baron.

While the urban setting and police officer push them outside the usual boundaries of cosy mysteries, they're still very similar in tone. They're light on police procedure, and they lack the graphic sex and violence you'd often find in darker, more serious mysteries. These are stories about people and motivations and the puzzle of the mystery – so if that's what you love about cosy mysteries, you'll likely enjoy these.

Since it's easy to get lost as you're moving through the series – and many bookstores and websites don't arrange them neatly in order – we wanted to offer up a list of all the books in the series in order. We've also included brief summaries to help you figure out where you left off, along with links to a variety of formats and bookseller options.

Though we've done our best to be vague, there are some very mild spoilers about events in Maisie's life. If you're still on the early books, we recommend not reading too far ahead unless you genuinely don't mind seeing something that might hint at what's to come.

BOOK 1: Ice Blue

Ice Blue

The blue-blooded Anthony Hetheridge, ninth Baron of Wellegrave, will turn sixty soon, and aside from an exciting career working for New Scotland Yard, his life is rather dull. Dull, that is, until he meets DS Kate Wakefield – a strong-willed, beautiful younger woman.

Now, he's working on a murder case in Belgravia while also fighting a growing attraction to his young colleague.

Anthony Hetheridge's wedding is just three weeks away, but when a disgraced CEO is murdered in London's West End, he finds himself under tremendous pressure to solve the case quickly.

If anything, it's a surprise that modern art dealer Granville Hardwick wasn't murdered sooner.

All the same, Lord and Lady Hetheridge will do their best to get to the bottom of it – while dealing with challenges at work and on the homefront.
