Delighted by the promise of living and working in a glittering Gilded Age mansion, Minerva Biggs moves to idyllic Bryd Hollow, North Carolina with her dog Plantagenet. She's looking for a new beginning; what she finds is five quite possibly deranged people, four French bulldogs, two distracting dimples attached to one inconvenient man . . . and one murder.

Nope, make that two murders. When Minerva makes a connection between her new employer's fatal fall and the death of his celebrated great-grandfather in the same spot more than a century before, she doubts that either was an accident. Delving into old secrets and new grudges, she begins to unravel the twisted threads that bind past to present. Right up until she tangles them around the wrong guy. Oops.

With a trial looming, a scandal raging, and her job prospects dwindling, Minerva races to solve both crimes. Preferably before her new beginning comes to an unfortunate end.

I enjoyed this book. This was a fun cozy mystery with all the usual an amateur sleuths who finds trouble without even trying, an adorable pet in this case a mischievous but well trained dog, a cute guy, a police detective that doesn't want any help and a body or two. Then let the chuckles unfold, the drama begin and the secrets uncovered. I think the motive was pretty obvious but being hidden in the diary was a fun twist and I hadn't quiet worked out who was responsible. I liked the characters. I am not sure how old Minerva is meant to be (and can't remember if we were told) but she seemed older than the usual ditzy amateur to me, which worked well for the story and the setting. I have got to admit Snicks (the butler I guess you might call him) was my favourite character, with his snide helpful comments and hope he becomes more of a sidekick in the next book.
After Minerva turns her back on teaching and her old life, all she takes with her to start her new job is her dog and love of history. Living and being a personal assistant to an old family with a lot of history is a dream job for her. Until she mets her boss and nearly gets fired on her first day, even worse her boss disappears not long after. His body is found where his grandfather also met a tragic end. Could the two be related like Minerva thinks or an accident like everybody else does? Minerva can't let it go but when the evidence she uncovers have the police making an arrest, Minerva keeps investigating because not only have they made a mistake but there is something more going on than meets the eye.
I liked the narrator. She made it easy to imagine the characters
