Critics Review
Praise for Miss Morton and the English House Party Murder:
“Smart and colorful sleuthing trio.” —Publishers Weekly
“A charming cross between a Regency romance and a well-constructed detective story with a surprising denouement.” —Kirkus Reviews
“Social injustices, prejudices, and all things Regency, including the appropriate flowery narrative, may be hard pills for present-day readers to swallow, but are era appropriate and well researched in this superb series debut. Caroline is an absolute gem of a heroine, whom readers will surely come to love as she bravely maneuvers through polite society to gather evidence and determine whodunit. Regardless of the unresolved ending, fans of historical mysteries and uncompromising women protagonists will find Miss Morton and the English House Party Murder impossible to put down.” —Mystery Scene Magazine
“Utterly engrossing.” —Historical Novel Society
