Beschreibung

Bloomsbury presents How to Solve Murders Like a Lady by Hannah Dolby, read by Antonia Beamish. Hannah Dolby does it again...Violet is such a character and her adventures are just delightful.' – Jennifer Paige *** Violet Hamilton is no ordinary lady… She is a Lady Detective, who spends her time solving mysteries and unveiling scandals in the bustling seaside town of Hastings and St Leonards, a popular spot for the Victorian middle classes. But when the body of a local woman is found on the beach, Violet's efforts to investigate are blocked at every turn. Is that because, as a woman, she can't possibly be allowed to think or act for herself? Or is it because someone sinister has Violet in their sights? Jane Austen meets Sherlock Holmes in this delightful mystery of manners that will steal your heart, and transport you to a world of seaside scandal and moonlit balls; dubious doctors and duplicitous crooked lords; adventurous escapades and stolen kisses. *** Praise for Hannah Dolby: 'Delightfully quirky, joyful and original' – Adele Parks 'Pure joy and utterly charming' – Faith Hogan 'Dolby's character delights with winsome wit and intuition. A fabulous read' – M J Robotham 'Hannah Dolby's second novel is as warm, witty and wonderful as her first.' – Kathleen Whyman

Rezensionen

Hannah Dolby's second novel is as warm, witty and wonderful as her first. Violet is the perfect blend of determination, innocence and cheekiness. I'd definitely want her services if I had a crime that needed investigating
