A Gentleman of Fortune: Or the Suspicions of Miss Dido Kent: 2 (Dido Kent Mysteries 2)

If Jane Austen had written Miss Marple she would have been Dido Kent.--Kirkus (starred review). The second installment in Anna Deans charming mystery series finds Miss Dido Kent vacationing at her cousin Floras. When Floras neighbor passes away Dido cant help but sense something is amiss. While she is ideally placed to observe the reaction of the community her suitor Mr. William Lomax feels otherwise. Dido wont be stopped however and as she learns more about the dirty dealings among the upper classes of Surrey she brings more to light than even she could have imagined. Anna Dean has crafted a delightful historical series; the next best thing to reading Jane Austen.
