Another lovely installment in this cozy mystery series featuring Lady Eleanor Swift.
It’s hard to keep a long running series fresh and fun but Verity Bright manages with aplomb. This episode finds Eleanor and her companion butler, Clifford, along with the Hall retainers, visiting a villa in southern France for a little vacation. Their holiday begins with the discovery of a dead body in the wine cellar — an American actor who is starring in a movie currently being shot in the area. Of course they are soon involved in the investigation.
I always enjoy the period details of historical fiction set in the 1920s and the descriptions bring the setting and era to life on the pages. I like the main characters and the interaction between Eleanor and Clifford. Looking forward to the next installment.
Thank you to NetGalley and Bookouture for t his e-book ARC to read and review. I’d recommend the entire series and suggest that they be read, from the beginning, in order.
This is the 10th book in the series. Read in order.
Genre - cozy mystery, historical fiction
