Cozy Mysteries

Cozy mysteries occur in benign, intimate environments like villages, castles, and universities and they lack graphic sex, violence, and profanity. Cozies have amateur sleuths solving crimes who use keen observation and intellect to hunt down criminals. These characters use brain power and not brawn, like in other hard-boiled detective novels. Agatha Christie and Dorothy L. Sayers are examples of authors of classic cozy mysteries.
