Most of her mystery novels are in one of two series:
 
''[[Felse Investigates (Literature)|Felse Investigates]]'' (13 novels, 1951-1978) -- Contemporary setting, with policeman George Felse and his son Dominic sharing the limelight (which one gets how much of the limelight varies from novel to novel). ''Death and The Joyful Woman'', the second novel in the series, won an Edgar Award and was adapted into an episode of ''[[The Alfred Hitchcock Hour]]'', with Frank Overton as George Felse.
 
''[[Brother Cadfael (Literature)|Brother Cadfael]]'' (20 novels & 3 short stories, 1977-1994) -- Historical (12th century) setting, featuring Brother Cadfael, a former soldier who became a monk in later life and consequently has a more worldly experience and outlook than many of his colleagues. Inspired the 1990s TV series ''[[Cadfael (TV series)|Cadfael]]'', with [[Derek Jacobi]] in the title role.
 
Of standalone mystery novels, she wrote five as "Ellis Peters"; before adopting that pseudonym for the Felse novels, she wrote four as "Jolyon Carr" and one each as "John Redfern" and "Peter Benedict".
