Murder in Bloomsbury - D. M. Quincy

Murder in Bloomsbury

von D. M. Quincy

Acclaimed author D. M. Quincy is back with a second captivating mystery as adventurer Atlas Catesby must put aside his own feelings for Lady Lilliana as they work together to get justice for someone she holds dear.

Aristocratic adventurer Atlas Catesby has spent the last year trying to forget Lady Lilliana Warwick, but when she reappears in his life imploring him to help her solve a murder, Atlas feels compelled to say yes.

The ner're-do-well brother of Lilliana's maid died of arsenic poisoning. Authorities are ruling his death an accident, but his sister suspects he was murdered. As Atlas and Lilliana investigate, they discover that the victim had a mysterious lover—a high-born lady he threatened with scandal after she spurned him. When they finally uncover her shocking true identity, the case blows wide open and it turns out there is a whole string of women who had reason to kill the handsome charmer. Now, as Atlas fights his growing feelings for Lilliana, they must work together to catch the assassin before the killer gets to them first.

Perfect for fans of Charles Finch and C. S. Harris, Murder in Bloomsbury is the magnificent second Atlas Catesby mystery.

Rezensionen zu diesem Buch

Guter historischer Krimi

In "Murder in Bloomsbury" wird Atlas Catesby erneut in die Aufklärung eines Todesfalles involviert, als Lady Lilliana, für die er Gefühle hegt, ihn um Hilfe bittet. Der Tote ist der Bruder einer ihrer Angestellten und diese ist fest davon überzeugt, dass er ermordet wurde, obwohl offiziell ein Unfall die Ursache war.

Wie schon der erste Band ist auch dieses Buch ein eher ruhiger, unaufgeregter Krimi, der teilweise etwas vorhersehbar verläuft, obwohl es durchaus spannende Momente gibt...
