Second in the historical British mystery series featuring "a masterpiece of detection, a Miss Marple-esque character both razor sharp and kindly" (Louise Penny, #1 New York Times-bestselling author).With all the charm of a Georgette Heyer novel, the sequel to Bellfield Hall finds Miss Dido Kent vacationing at the home of her cousin. When a neighbor passes away quite suddenly, Dido feels she is ideally placed to observe the reaction of the community, but her suitor, Mr. William Lomax, feels otherwise. As Dido presses on, she learns more about the dirty dealings among the upper classes of Surrey than even she could have imagined. Anna Dean has crafted a delightful historical mystery series; the next best thing to reading Jane Austen."Delightful. The clever puzzle and pitch-perfect Regency prose will charm readers." -Kirkus Reviews (starred review)"The plight of a gentleman raised in luxury yet entirely dependent on the good will of elderly relatives will resonate with fans of Jane Austen’s Emma." -Publishers Weekly
