Resumen del Editor

Newly married Frances Hazelton, formerly the Countess of Harleigh, should be planning her honeymoon. Instead, she’s unmasking a murderer among the upper crust …

With her new husband George busy on a special mission for the British Museum, Frances has taken on an assignment of her own. The dowager Viscountess Wingate needs someone to sponsor her niece, Kate, for presentation to Queen Victoria. Frances—who understands society’s quirks and constraints as only an outsider can—is the perfect candidate.

Kate is charming and intelligent, though perhaps not quite as sheltered as she might first appear. More worrying to Frances is the viscountess’s sudden deterioration. The usually formidable dowager has become shockingly frail, and Frances suspects someone may be drugging her. The spotlight falls on Kate, who stands to inherit if her aunt passes, yet there are plenty of other likely candidates within the dowager’s household, both above and below stairs.

Joining forces with her beloved George, Frances comes to believe that the late viscount, too, was targeted. And with the dowager seeming to be in greater danger every day, they must flush out the villain before she follows in her husband’s footsteps, directly to the grave …

Pleasant read, but...

I didn't like that there seemed to not be any clues until the end to help piece together who did it.

Love this series!

Freeman and Zimmerman have done it again. Excellent story. Excellent narration. I hope there is another book coming soon!

love the characters, the mystery & putting all the clues together!!!

I've thoroughly enjoyed this series and look forward to the next book (hopefully soon) in this series!!!
I've already recommended this series to several friends!!!

Wonderful characters and great narration!

I’ve read the hard copy version of the other books and really enjoyed the stories. This is my first time listening to one of these books and I have to say that the narrator made the story even more enjoyable. Looking forward to the one.

Dependable source of entertainment

I can always count on this series for a great story that holds my attention throughout.
The characters and their situations are engaging.
Thanks for the break they provide.

Another fun episode with Frances and George

The author cleverly, weaves together, humor, and interesting characters to solve another mystery. I love that these books in the series are PG and don’t include inappropriate aspects. I can’t wait for the next installment when hopefully Francis and George finally get to go on their wedding trip!

A clever believable mystery

I have been totally enchanted by this series. The characters are clever, believable, and witty. The heroine does not do stupid things as most mystery heroines do. The narrator is perfect and really captures the characters.

Great story and narration.

Ms. Freeman delivers a great story which has been well researched and continues to develop the main protagonist France and the supporting characters. It was rare to feel and understand how society worked then.

The narrator Sarah Zimmerman does an amazing job. When I read any of the books now, it is Sarah's voice I hear.

This is a wonderful cozy series. If you are looking for something new, this series will not disappoint.

MUST READ SERIES!

This is without a doubt one of the best series I’ve ever read. I will be rereading them often!! I sure hope the author continues on this journey. It’s such a wonderful world to escape to.

Delightful & On Point

I love the Countess books. This is no exception. It’s a light read with good twists and turns. Ms. Zimmerman’s performance is perfect. So fun.
