Lädt ... The Sign of Death (2021)von Callie Hutton
   Keine Keine aktuelle Diskussion zu diesem Buch.  Shauna_Morrison | May 27, 2023 |   If you're willing to set aside your arguments for what is and is not period-appropriate, you might enjoy these two as they (sort of) avoid talking about their attraction to each other while they whisk around late Victorian-era Bath searching for clues to who bumped off William's man of business, found floating in the river. Honestly, this series' style reminds me of middle grade fiction, even though it's clearly marketed for an adult reader. But sometimes I'm in the mood for easy reading and some general cuteness, and for those times, a book like this works. Thanks to NetGalley and Crooked Lane Books for this advance review copy. (  ) Alishadt | Feb 25, 2023 |  ) ethel55 | Aug 15, 2021 | This is a fun series set in the Regency period. The characters are enjoyable and the stories well-written. (  ) cyderry | Aug 3, 2021 | An enjoyable cozy historical mystery (not enough) and romance (too much) with an annoying dog. An ARC was provided by the publisher via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. ( ) Vesper1931 | Jul 29, 2021 | keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

HTML:A 2022 MARY HIGGINS CLARK AWARD Nominee USA Today bestselling author Callie Hutton returns with her second Victorian Book Club mystery, in which Lady Amy and Lord William sleuth the death of a teetotaler who took a fatal dunk in the drink. Bath, England, 1891. Mr. James Harding was a lot of thingsâ??businessman, well-to-do, probable scoundrelâ??but a drinker he most assuredly was not. So when Harding is believed to have drunkenly fallen to his death into the icy River Avon, Lord William Wethington is immediately suspicious. Finding Lord William's name on a letter in the victim's pocket, the local constabulary summons William to identify the victim. Police detectives learn that William had been one of Harding's business clientsâ??and undoubtedly not the only client the dead man had cheated. William entreats Lady Amy Lovell, a fellow member of the Mystery Book Club of Bath, to help him deduce what really happened to the late Mr. Harding. Lady Amy, a celebrated mystery author herself, once called on William to help her solve a real-life mystery, and now she fully intends to return the favor. But it won't be easy. Practically every one of Harding's many clients had ample reason to want to do him in. And there's precious little time to narrow down the list: William and Amy soon become prime suspects themselves when the police discover them ruffling through files in Harding's house. Lady Amy will have to be as clever as her characters if she's to save William from the gallows...and herself from Harding's rea Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
