A good detective novel. This was a very interesting read. I love that she has the setting in18th century England and it's true to 18th century England I also love that there's no sex or foul language in the book. I wasn't able to figure out the perpetrator right away, too, which I like. I like the two main characters. They work well together and you get the feeling they're truly human, but with great perception.. "Five Stars" according to Cherry Pie. Lots of fun to read. I have have read all that are available. I am enjoying the characters.. Evalyn L Sayer said A great read. Great cast love the detective Lavender and. A great read. Great cast love the detective Lavender and his sidekick.
