The Quiet Gentleman by Georgette Heyer

5.0

This is a suspenseful Regency read... I love it that the hero is a quiet, soft-spoken guy who nevertheless wields quite a lot of power on the people around him. It probably helps that he's an Earl. In any case, Lord St. Erth returns back from the Napoleonic wars to a family seat that is filled with family who may or may not be happy that he survived the war and inherited the title and the estate. Mysterious mischances keep befalling the Earl, who adroitly watches to see what is really happening around him. I enjoyed this one a lot.
