Murder by Degrees by Ritu Mukerji

mysterious medium-paced

4.0

I thoroughly enjoyed Murder by Degrees by Ritu Mukerji. The blend of mystery and historical fiction set in 19th century Philadelphia is captivating. Dr. Lydia Weston's character is compelling, and her determination to uncover the truth behind Anna Ward's death kept me engaged. The book's exploration of female empowerment in a male-dominated society is thought-provoking, and I appreciated the well-researched medical aspects. The use of poetry and cryptic passages added an intriguing layer to the narrative. The author's attention to detail and well-developed characters made this debut a delightful read. I look forward to more books in the series.
