Silent in the Sanctuary by Deanna Raybourn

4.0

Lady Julia is my homegirl. This series is engaging - the murder doesn't actually take place until about 200 pages but the book did not feel any poorer for it, thanks to Lady Julia's wonderfully witty view of her family and acquaintances as they gather for Christmas and a wedding.

I loved the mystery and the ominous note on which the book ends seems to suggest more sinister things await Lady Julia in the future.

HOWEVER, I was annoyed by the ending! In that good "I care about these characters so I am annoyed" way, not the "ARGH, what were you thinking, author?!" way. I had to restrain myself from not diving immediately into book 3. So help me, if I don't get my resolution, I will not be held accountable for my actions.
