pickIt‘s an intricate and well-plotted mystery that will keep you turning pages. Burke maybe tries to do a bit Too Much with it, but she‘s crafted a really fascinating character in Kelsey, the real estate heiress who is widely suspected of murdering her estranged husband.

pickI love that most chapters begin with a pertinent epigraph from Jane Austin‘s Pride & Prejudice!
Rosalyn Thorne,a “most useful woman”of discretion & societal connections,is hired by Bethany Douglas,an old school friend,ostensively to find her stolen pearl necklace.Bethany‘s multi-generational family,who reside with her, harbor many secrets.Rosalind,with the help of Dec. Adam, has to wade through questions of fraud, blackmail, forgery,& murder.
I am so enjoying this audiobook, a first in a series of mystery novels inspired by Jane Austen. Each chapter begins with a quote from Pride and Prejudice which suggests just what unfolds. #serieslove2025 #jumpstart2025 #Read2025
