A Breach of Promise by Anne Perry
5.0
Breach of Promise by Anne Perry is #9/24 of her long-running William Monk series. I hope it is one of her best because I can’t imagine how it could be any better. The story includes two mysteries: Mr. Killian Melville (a brilliant architect) is being sued for breach of promise for failing to marry Zillah Lambert (his rich and beautiful fiancée). The second mystery is locating Leda and Phemie Jackson, deaf and deformed, who were abandoned as small children almost two decades ago. A mark is an excellent mystery is when the reveal is not just surprising but changes the meaning of everything that came before.
Pure mystery gold. Unexpected and retroactively obvious.
