ssejig 's review for:
A Pretty Deceit
by Anna Lee Huber
A lot of good men were injured in the First World War in any number of ways. Verity Kent has her own issues that she is dealing with from being part of a spy network but she feels like she has it better than a lot of other people, including her own cousin. Reggie was blinded in the war and now his mother treats him like an invalid. Yes, he is a lord but that doesn’t mean that he was left any money. And the estate is (according to his mother) falling down around the family’s ears. So Verity’s parents send her out to see what, exactly, is going on.
Several mysteries overlap including the history of the estate, a modern day murder, and a matter that dates back to Verity’s time in the war.
Another story, well-woven and well-written. I don’t think regular Verity Kent readers will be disappointed.
