A reluctant lady sleuth finds she's investigating her own family.
1881, Sussex. With a drowned husband—the second love lost—an overbearing family, no longed-for child, and the responsibility of a huge baroque mansion, it's not surprising Lady Helena Whitcombe is overwhelmed. When attractive, mysterious, French physician Armand Fortier disturbs her first weeks of mourning with his theory of murder, Helena's reluctant and ineffective attempts at investigation are hardly life-changing—until the resulting revival in her long-abandoned herbalist studies bring her into confrontation with her past and her family's.
Can Lady Helena survive bereavement the second time around? Can she stand up to her six siblings' assumption of the right to control her new life as a widow? And what role will Fortier—who, as a physician, is a most unsuitable companion for an earl's daughter—play in her investigations?
Every family has its secrets. The Scott-De Quincy family has more than most.

BladvändareTrevligt språk, härligt fyllig uppbyggnad av historien, man känner nånting för karaktärerna, trevligt realistisk utveckling av karaktärerna och historien utan att vara förutsägbar

MysigOförutsägbarI wouldn't actually say tar Lady Helena investigates anything- she just lives her life where things happen. With that said, this was inte of the most content-rich and engaging mystery stories I have read. An unusually well-written novel with deep characters and an interesting plot. Definitely worth the read. Getting on to the next book immediately.

MysigTrevlig historia som hade lite olika intressanta vändningar men mer mysig än spännande.

Bra bok, som innehåller många populära ingredienser men ändå gjord efter eget recept. Inte så förutsägbar. Trevlig upplevelse. Väl uppläst, men tyvärr med lite för ytlig klangbotten för mig. Läsningen är lite spänd, och när det blir dramatiskt blir det ännu mera spänt och högljutt. Om inläsaren andats med magen och haft modet att pausa lite ibland, skulle upplevelsen varit starkare.

Helt ok deckare i viktoriansk högreståndsmiljö. Ingen sensation men bra som förströelse.
