Up and coming novelist Jane Austen joins forces with London's most esteemed investigative duo – actress Dora Fitz-Pennington and Dr Jacob Sandys – to solve the brutal murder of a Russian count and his opera singer wife. The killer took his own life immediately after the crime – but who sent him and why?
Packed with political espionage, beautiful nods to Austen's most celebrated works, and bubbling with romantic tension between our hero and heroine, this will be the most rewarding Regency read of the season….
The Austen Intrigue was another delightful installment in the adventures of Dora and Jacob. The inclusion of Jane Austen as a character added some fun to the mix, and the story of the investigation into the murder was generally well paced and enjoyable to follow, with a wonderful collection of side characters, both old and new, aiding or hindering things along the way. As with the other books in the series, there is enough information available on the backstory if you wanted to read it as a standalone, but you would get more from the series in terms of the romantic aspects if you read them in order. I am giving this volume 4 stars.
I received this book as a free eBook ARC via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
