Critiques

The story takes place in Scotland in 1765 where Kitty Nairne marries the much older Laird Thomas Ogilvie. Kitty is not only young but immature as well and begins an ill advised relationship with her husband's younger brother, Patrick. Then a terrible murder takes place and Kitty is blamed.
I am a fan of true crime and remember reading about this case. I was very interested to read a fictionalized version of this crime and the trial that took place.
I found the writing and the story interesting and refreshing. The author did a good job of detailing everyday life in Scotland during the period in which these events took place.… (plus d'informations)

A semi-fictional account of the life of Henry Tudor who would become Henry VII, the story ending on his wedding day. An enjoyable well-written book and as I admit to knowing very little about this king I found the subject interesting.

In Victorian London,Theodore Crozier, businessman, has been found dead. Initially thought to be a natural death, suspicions are raised and whispers about a relationship between Mrs Laura Crozier and her brother-in-law Titus are brought to light. It falls to Inspector John Joseph Lintott to investigate.
An enjoyable mystery and an interesting exposé of Victorian domestic life.

1902 and Nicholas Carradine employs ex-detective Inspector John Lintott to investigate the train accident that killed his six-year old half-sister Odetto, twenty years ago. The case take Lintott to the scene of the crash in France.
I enjoyed the mystery of this story but the books should probably be called a romance and mystery story.
