Murder at an English Séance by Jessica Ellicott

3.0

I have been a reader of this series from book one and enjoy the characters Edwina and Beryl but this installment feels a bit off. It is difficult to marry the lightness of the previous books with the sombre tone of this one. There is a lot of history and tradegy in it and this is only furthered by the seance. I enjoy cosy rather than historical mysteries and this seems to have taken a turn. Some of the plot was implausible for me and a little too transparent. The writing is good though and if you enjoy a historical novel this may be more your cup of tea than mine.
