sarahle 's review for:
A Pretty Deceit
by Anna Lee Huber
Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for an electronic copy to read and review.
As a fan of the Maisie Dobbs series by Jacqueline Winspear I was so excited to be introduced to Verity Kent. Along the same veins we have a young lady who works for the government gathering and delivering intelligence. The main difference is that this series takes place after WW1. Think Downton Abbey meets Maisie Dobbs. I am here for it! What I really appreciate is the recurring characters and an overall arch-nemesis that returns, in some form, in each novel. This is definitely a great series to start if you are looking for a murder mystery that isn't too graphic. If you are starting it is best to read them in order.
