Cordelia, Lady Cornbrook has lost her husband, her home and she's about to lose her patience. She should have been enjoying a relaxing stay with Hugo Hawke at his country manor. But Hawke is a cad who is mostly interested in drinking, gambling and - well, all the other things you'd expect a moustachioed Victorian gentleman to pursue. Then a young man is found dead and it unlocks a series of events that expose the darker side of quiet rural life. There's callisthenics, a surly coachman, a doctor with a suspicious past, laudanum and society balls. Cordelia has two reasons to find the killer, and only one of those reasons is "justice."Because if she can't unmask the murderer, her very future is at stake...This novel contains innuendo but no graphic scenes and may be considered "clean" and suitable for all readers.

On visiting the local town she is drawn by the crowds to a house where a killing has occurred. With her trusted servants she decides to try and find the killer as a wager.
Though it took a while for Cordelia to start investigating I found the style of writing very easy to read, drawing you along, and the likable characters have formed a basis for the next book. ( )
