Lady Julia's husband dies during a dinner party which is not only very inconvenient for the guests but Lady Julia had no idea she would be wearing black so soon. Shortly after her husband's demise Lady Julia is called upon by a private investigator claiming that her husband's death was not due to natural causes. The idea of her husband being murdered brings Lady Julia out of her comfortable environment and into the less aristocratic parts of London but she must find out if it 's true or not.I decided to buy this book after having read the first 3 lines:
"To say that I met Nicholas Brisbane over my husband's dead body is not entirely accurate. Edward, it should be noted, was still twitching on the floor."
Well, what can I say? There was no way I would not buy a book with such an introduction and it kept on delivering more and more and better and better. At times it's funny and at other times a bit sad but the quality is high throughout.
It's a difficult book to write about because I know I couldn't do it justice. So there's really only a few things to say;
1) I've ordered the second novel "Silent in the Sanctuary" from Amazon.co.uk and I can't wait until it gets here
2) It's one of the best books I've ever read!
