Death of a Dishonorable Gentleman by Tessa Arlen

3.0

I wanted to like this more than I did. The plot was good, the murder was good, the detection also was good. The historical details were also well done; nothing was jarring. I think I just did not like the writing and language. Some slang was used that I am not sure belongs to the period; and some expressions, such as something being a "no-no," just did not add much to the quality of the writing. I guess I would say that it looked like the time period but didn't sound like it. It was also rather shallow and I did not feel connected with the characters.
