a very enjoyable read, as was each of her four books.Lots of information about Regency social classes and life in general. The author died far to young...she will be missed.

It's a little convoluted, but quite good. I haven't quite finished it yet.

Real good mystery. In 1820 it was hard to be a detective, especially when it's your first murder to solve. This is Ms Ross's first of a few detective novels with Julian Kestrel and his servant Dipper. It is a shame Ms Ross could only write a few before she died. I love all of her books.
