About 2/3rds of the way through, but I had to stop and put the next couple on hold at my library.

The premise is that two women start up a marriage bureau business right after the end of WWII in London. But murder happens, and they end up having to solve it to protect their own business.

The period details read accurate (from an outsider's view, obviously)and the writing is funny, witty and really quite good.
I have this book on hold at Overdrive in both eBook and audiobook. I'll see which one becomes available first.
