At the moment, l'm totally intrigued!
Empathic characters, great historical setting, an intriguing murder that hit too close to home... And maybe a ghost! 🤩

And what to say about this gorgeous cover? 😍

After reading the wonderful 'The Deception of Harriet Fleet' by the same author, I thought it would be a difficult act to follow. I needn't have been concerned, as although this takes place in a different era & a completely different subject, it was just as good. The story takes place just after the 'Great War' (WWI) & Scarlett aptly conveys the grief & the guilt felt by those who survived. (Continued)

OutsmartYourShelf The plot gradually unfolds into a story which has many twists & turns & covers blackmail, infidelity, scandal, & murder. There's also a hint of the unknown as Grace is convinced she keeps seeing Robert everywhere but when she chases him down, he has always disappeared. Is Grace imagining things or is Robert still alive? If you enjoy slow burning historical mysteries , then you should give this a try. 5🌟
