Overall I liked this story a lot. My only real problem was the behavior of the Duke, who was a perfectly decent human around everyone but Grace (most of the time). His way of fighting his feelingss is to act like an absolute asshat, and though we do get enough of his character to know he's a better guy than that, he's also....really an asshat sometimes. 
I'm enjoying the mystery element, and

looking forward to what seems to be a redeemed villain story with Beatryce (who was a raging monster in this book) and the cinnamon roll that is Dansbury. An enemy to lovers romance with a redeemed female villain? Sign me up.
