A Treacherous Performance by Lynn Messina
4.0
I was absolutely thrilled to catch up with Bea and Kesgrave again and I wasn't disappointed by the latest instalment in their adventures. Lynn Messina continues to write with a deft and witty manner and the scene at the start of the novel where poor Bea's home is cumulatively invaded by a series of society callers is absolutely hilarious and reminiscent of a scene from an opera. Secondary characters like Nuneaton continue to be a delight and I really have grown terribly fond of cousin Flora.
I enjoyed Bea and Kesgrave continuing to work together, solving problems and supporting one another. I like that they continue to be very canny and insightful - backing one another and their respective assessments. I'm wondering how long it will be possible to delay ... things, whether the wedding or the culmination of their frantic desires, but I simply can't wait until the next novel is out.
