Assured, accomplished debut. If you’re lamenting there are no more Georgette Heyer murder mysteries, try these. Regency flavor and cant, a background romance, and an appealing, competent amateur detective in Julian Kestral, who also has help from his valet Dipper and a crusty local doctor. Sadly, Ms Ross wrote only 4 before her untimely death. Going to track down the other three!
