A Regency Murder!

 

A Gentlewoman's Guide to Murder (A Gentlewoman's Guide to Murder #1)A Gentlewoman's Guide to Murder by Victoria Hamilton
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The murder of Sir Henry Claybourne leaves Regency London shaken. But for spinster Miss Emmeline St. Germaine, the crime slices far too close to home. Just hours before his death she held a dagger to him, threatening him as she rescued a scullery maid he had procured for his pleasure. Did the person who murdered Sir Henry know of her visit? Emmeline must solve the crime or face scandalous exposure and ruination, and maybe the noose, for a crime she did not commit.
This was an interesting historical cozy mystery that showed the underbelly of Regency England. Emmeline seemed to be the perfect sleuth, although I felt that she was ahead of her time because her views and deeds were not popular for that time period. The plot was intriguing and contained many red herrings that kept me guessing until the end. Thank you to NetGalley and Beyond the Page Publishing for this advanced reader’s copy.

Murder by Christmas Scarves!

 

Christmas Scarf Murder (Irish Village Mystery, #8.5)Christmas Scarf Murder by Carlene O'Connor
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Stocking stuffers like handknit scarves make the coziest of Christmas gifts—unless they’re used as accessories for murder! This book is a bundle of three different Christmas cozy mysteries by three amazing authors: Carlene O’Connor, Maddie Day, and Peggy Ehrhart.
These mysteries are short, but complete with interesting characters, suspenseful plots, and settings that give you the Christmas Spirit. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book, and I recommend it highly. Thank you to NetGalley and Kensington Books for this advanced reader's copy. This review is my unbiased opinion.
