Avis sur le produitA Victorian Bookshop Mystery Ser.: The Royal Assassin by Kate Parker (2015, Trade Paperback)

A fast-paced cozy historical adventure, and well-thought out murder mystery

This is the third book of 5 in a delightful cozy mystery series. I advise you to get all five and start from the first one: The Vanishing Thief, in which Georgia Fenchurch, the owner of a Victorian bookshop, and her colleagues in the Archivist society are introduced. The archivist society is a group that solves mysteries the police can’t or won’t solve. The characters develope over the 5 books. Each book has a unique main murder/theft mystery, with well-developed clues and an array of suspects, but what makes them really fun is that they are fast moving romantic adventures. The primary romance between Georgia and the duke, and the resolution of the murder of her parents, take several books to resolve. The author Kate Parker carefully researched the period at the end of the 19th century. The dialogue is good, the characters very likable, and it is sometimes laugh out loud funny. When you finish a book you just want to start another, to solve another mystery with these honorable and resourceful people.Lire l'avis complet...
