How to Solve Murders Like a Lady
How to Solve Murders Like a Lady: The new laugh-out-loud British historical detective novel | Hannah Dolby
1 post | 1 read
***Hannah Dolby's latest instalment of the adventures of Lady Detective Violet Hamilton is available for pre-order now!*** Violet Hamilton is no ordinary lady... She is a Lady Detective, who spends her time solving mysteries and unveiling scandals in the bustling seaside town of Hastings and St Leonards, a popular spot for the Victorian middle classes. But when the body of a local woman is found on the beach, Violet's efforts to investigate are blocked at every turn. Is that because, as a woman, she can't possibly be allowed to think or act for herself? Or is it because someone sinister has Violet in their sights? Jane Austen meets Sherlock Holmes in this delightful mystery of manners that will steal your heart, and transport you to a world of seaside scandal and moonlit balls; dubious doctors and duplicitous crooked lords; adventurous escapades and stolen kisses.

This is second in series and Violet Hamilton continues to delight as an intelligent, no nonsense, forward-thinking eccentric who is assisting her fiancé in his furniture shop as well as his side business of private investigating. As she‘s learning to be a Lady Detective, I admired her dedication, her focus and her sense of humor in dealing with the ins and outs of job as well as the variety of people she comes in contact with. You can‘t help ?

robinb but root for Violet, and I am definitely looking forward to more fun with her. 4.25/5⭐️ 4w
