A Duty To The Dead by Charles Todd
4.0
This book gets one of the highest compliments I pay to books: I was hours late getting to sleep last night because I didn't want to stop listening.
Bess Crawford is a compelling protagonist. She's a clever, brave, driven young woman, wounded while working as a nurse during World War I, who stumbles onto a mystery and feels duty bound to find out the truth. She's neither irritatingly perfect nor frustratingly dumb, and she doesn't fall in love at the drop of a hat — all of which mean that I'm definitely looking forward to reading more books in the series.
