My Take: This was an exciting Regency Mystery. I don't usually read Regency Mysteries but this one grabbed my attnetion and I was hooked from begginning to end. This book has well developed characters and a well thought out mystery. I would highly recommend this book if you like Regency Mysteries or Sherlock Holmes. I received a review copy from REading with Audra Jennings and was not required to write a positive review.
