I do love a historical mystery and this series has landed in my To Read list. I loved the mix of upstairs and down, the strong and intelligent main characters, and the at times heartbreaking World War 1 element.

Mrs. Jackson and Lady Montfort May just be one of my favorite investing teams. While they’re both intelligent and observant their perspectives and knowledge is very different so they are really able to work together. As well their friendship and respect for each other feels incredibly genuine.

The mystery was very entertaining though it did have touches of tragedy as I spent more time around the officers that inhabit the hospital. There were a number of very clever clues and red herrings. This one kept me guessing but even better made me feel emotionally involved.

While this is the 4th book in the series I really had no trouble jumping in even from the beginning. This was really a delightful read and has me looking forward to reading more from the series.
