I sadly do not have a review or video for this week. I just got the book on Tuesday and have been distracted with true crime and ghost stories. But here is the book I am currently in progress with:
Silent in the Grave is the first Lady Julia Grey Mystery by Deanna Raybourn. Here's the synopsis:
"Let the wicked be ashamed, and let them be silent in the grave. "
These ominous words are the last threat that the darling of London society, Sir Edward Grey, receives from his killer. Before he can show them to Nicholas Brisbane, the private inquiry agent he has retained for his protection, Sir Edward collapses and dies at his London home, in the presence of his wife, Julia, and a roomful of dinner guests.
Julia is outraged when Brisbane visits and suggests that Sir Edward has been murdered. It is a reaction she comes to regret when she discovers the damning paper for herself, and realizes the truth. Determined to bring her husband's murderer to justice, Julia engages the enigmatic Brisbane to help her investigate Edward's demise, following a trail of clues that lead her to even more unpleasant truths, and ever closer to a killer who waits expectantly for her arrival.
Needless to say - so looking forward to it and watching the women of Vaginal Fantasy discuss (or not). Follow my progress on Twitter https://twitter.com/BookFidelity as I think I'll be cuddling up with this one tonight.
