Murder in the East End
by Jennifer Ashley
Kat Holloway is a live-in cook in well-to-do Victorian household, and is doing her best to keep herself and her daughter afloat. When Kat is beckoned by her 'friend' Daniel, who mysteriously works for Scotland Yard in some unofficial manner, for Kat's help to finding missing, orphaned children she can't say no.
This is this first book I have read in the Kat Holloway series. The book did a good job of drawing the reader in and providing enough information so the reader doesn't feel left in the lurch for not having read the previous books in the series. Also, I noticed her using places and settings mentioned in her previous works, which is always appealing. The story was well paced and engaging, but ending fell flat for me. I still enjoy Jennifer Ashley's work and look forward to reading more by her. However, I'm not sure if this series is my cup of tea.
