Murder at Wedgefield Manor by Erica Ruth Neubauer

I very much appreciated that Jane got to expand as a detective. This definitely wasn't one of those "the detective only solves it when the murderer tries to kill them" stories. It was nice to see her grow as a detective. It was sort of interesting that more than one person actually looked to her to fix everything when a mechanic from the Wedgefield Manor is murdered. After the events of the last book, that does make some sense - she's part of the family (in a sense) so she can be trusted to keep a secret and she does have some experience.
Her experience isn't especially vast though so it helps that her beau from the last book, Mr. Redvers, also mysteriously appears on the scene and is able to stay long enough to help solve not only the murder but some other mysteries as well.
Maybe everything doesn't hang together perfectly but it was overall an enjoyable read and I am looking forward to the next book in the series.
