I really enjoyed the storyline because even though the genre is historical romance, the content of the story focuses more on uncovering the mystery of death, like the Sherlock Holmes story that we know. Of course I was guessing and even though my answer wasn't quite close to the truth, it was still a good experience. 
It's just a regrettable minus that this story is written as if it supports infidelity in a married person's relationship. So much cheating going on and I don't like it. I have to stop shuddering every time that story comes up. And a big crime that is paid for by death, I would prefer if the perpetrator of sexual harassment was punished and died slowly rather than committing suicide.
