Before I begin I must admit that I have not read the first novel in this series, A Beautiful Blue Death. However, I did not feel like some other readers that that novel should be read first. September Society seemed to stand alone to me even though I can see where the first novel must have gone.

Charles Lenox is an entertaining and complex character. I like him very much even while he struggles with his personal issues. Should he ask Lady Jane to marry him or not? Well he must focus on why a young Oxford University student is killed in much the same way as his father died almost twenty years ago. Can they possibly be linked and what about the mysterious group called the September Society. As the novel unwinds it all becomes clear but to say more would give too much away. My advice is to read the novel for yourself. And, if you like pick up A Beautiful Blue Death first to understand the character more clearly.
