Another delightful installment in this cozy mystery series set in Devon, England. This 4th features Miss Kitty Underhay, whose grandmother owns the Dolphin Hotel, in her latest adventure.
It's autumn, 1933, and Kitty is attending the annual Hotelier's Association Dinner and Dance with her love interest, Captain Matthew Bryant, when one of the guests at their table collapses and dies. Poisoned. Councillor Harold Everton was known as an honest businessman, but soon there are hints of fraud and bribery in the local council. Who wanted him dead and why? As Kitty and Bryant dig around trying to find clues to solve the case, other trouble is brewing. In addition, Kitty continues her quest to find out what happened to her mother who went missing 17 years ago.
Fast and fun, I really enjoy this period in history and love all the details the author interjects to make the era come alive on the page. I've followed this series from the beginning and it's one of my favorites in this genre. I look forward to seeing what's next for Kitty and Matthew.
Thank you to NetGalley and Bookouture for this e-book ARC to read, review, and recommend.
This is the 4th in a series that should be read in order.
Genre: cozy historical mystery, romance
