Murder in Season by Mary Winters
4.0
I received a free copy of Murder in Season through Austenprose PR for a book tour. Thank you so much for this opportunity!
This was such a fun historical fiction read! And while technically the third book in the A Lady of Letters Mystery series, this could easily be read as a standalone!
With mystery and murder alongside the high society season, it was entertaining to follow Amelia as she sleuthed her way to the truth! Not only that, we get to start each chapter with Amelia’s secret life, being an advice columnist, writing anonymous responses to other ladies within the ton about all sorts - finding love, general advice, what’s acceptable within society, and so much more! These letters were my favorite parts of the book! They set up the vibe for the chapter, sometimes with a little foreshadowing that I started to pick up on as we got further into the book.
I really didn’t know what to expect with this whodunit mystery regarding the murder and the jewelry thief. Every time I thought I knew what to expect, more details would surface that made me question what I knew. It truly made for a thrilling read!
I loved following Amelia, who leads this double life, providing secret advice to those around her, trying to keep her rowdy sister in check, and helping her find love this season. While also in search of love again herself, finally ready to try for love again after losing her husband. It was easy to get sucked into this read! I didn’t want to put it down!
I highly recommend this book if you enjoy fashionable society and mystery historical fiction! This was such an entertaining read!
