What makes it: An Extravagant Death

A Charles Lenox Mystery

by Charles Finch

Charles Lenox has been engaging readers since his first appearance in A Beautiful Blue Death. An Extravagant Death, fourteenth in the series will be enjoyed by those who already know the series and those who want to begin here.

It is now 1878. Lenox is an established detective who also has a full and busy personal life. However, he cannot turn down an opportunity that is brought to him by Prime Minister, Benjamin Disraeli. The situation leads him to the U.S., upper crust Society and a murder. Will Charles’s reputation remain intact? Will he solve the case of the debutante’s death? Readers will delight in turning the pages as they wait to find out.

This book has interesting characters and settings. I especially enjoyed spending time in Newport.

Many thanks to NetGalley and the publisher. Keep those Lenox titles coming, please. All opinions are my own.
