A good story with a sister to a duke who has died fallen of her horse and broke her neck accident !maybe maybe not,so the story is centred around that.
Overall enjoyed but not a clean story

A great mystery

Right well I am incredibly pleased with this first book in the series... Anna Harrington has a very uncanny skill at pacing. This (like all her other writing) never felt rush and was very well developed. Other HR that I’ve read that dabble in the bleak underworld of Regency England never strike such a good balance between the mystery and the romance itself. This really was done extraordinarily well. The story was very well weaved, and very satisfying. Loved the last setup for the rest of the series and so looking forward to the next installments. Justine Eyre forever and always the only narrator that really delivers. She always imbues emotion in narration and dialogue and makes it feel like you are listening to a conversation. As all of Anna Harrington’s writing has a big incendiary emotional moment or two (all the Carlisle brothers’ stories made me weep at one point), JE is the only one that will do in my opinion. Can’t wait for the next one! Highly recommend.

EXCELLENT start to a new series
