I do have a question about P.D. James...

The only book of hers that I've read recently enough to remember is Death Comes to Pemberley, which I found very disappointing (as a murder mystery, as a period piece, and as a Jane Austen wannabe). It did have its points of interest as a period piece, in terms of how the law worked, but not well presented (IMO).

So, given my obviously negative reaction to that, does she normally do better? Are the Dalgliesh books worth trying?
