My favourite sub-genre here is the historical murder mystery. Here are a few recommendations: Shardlake series (set in Tudor England). Highly recommended, especially Revelation. Paul Doherty's works: short and sweet books you can finish in a day or two, and the whodunit plots are quite good too. Especially recommend the Canterbury Tales at Night series, others are Hugh Corbett (set in the reign of Edward I) and Brother Athelstan (reign of Richard II) And of course the good old faithfuls: Ellis Peters' Cadfael (set during the original Troubles - 12th century England) Agatha Christie's Death comes as the end (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_Comes_as_the_End https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_Comes_as_the_End) Happy arm chair crime solving!
