Historical crime has always been fascinating to people. Jack the Ripper still getting so much air time would be proof of that. So it's not too surprising that historical crime fiction is as popular as it is.
And luckily history being quite long means there is plenty of interesting period to choose from. A murder in a medieval monastery? There's actually more than one really good example of that (Dissolution and Name of the Rose), early 20th century British India? Yep, a whole series. (Starts with A Rising Man) Crimes being committed by Cold War spies? Try something by John Lewis Carre. There is bound to be something you fancy in all this lot.
