Of Hoaxes and Homicides

Sometimes a person wants an historical mystery that they can sink into and be entertained by for a few hours. This book and series will appeal to anybody who is looking for that kind of read.

Those who pick this one up will enjoy meeting the detecting two half sisters. They are quite different but complement one another.

Anyone who has read an advice column will also enjoy knowing that Dear Miss Hermione is an important feature of the plot. When a mother writes to Miss H regarding a cult and her child, things are off and running. When there is a poisoning, the plot intensifies. Keep an eye out for Eli Marsh and housekeeper Bunty as the sisters detect.

I recommend this novel. It has twists, humor, heart and good characters.

Many thanks to NetGalley and St. Martin’s Press/Minotaur books for this title. All opinions are my own.
