1805. An engagement party is taking place for Mr
Richard Montague, son of wealthy landowner Sir Edgar
Montague, and his fiancee Catherine. During a dance with his
beloved, a strange thing happens: a man appears at Richard's
shoulder and appears to communicate something to him without
saying a word. Instantly breaking off the engagement, he
rushes off to speak to his father, never to be seen again. Distraught with worry, Catherine sends for her spinster
aunt, Miss Dido Kent, who has a penchant for solving
mysteries. Catherine pleads with her to find her fiance and
to discover the truth behind his disappearance. It's going
to take a lot of logical thinking to untangle the complex
threads of this multi-layered mystery, and Miss Dido Kent is
just the woman to do it.

I have just finished Bellfield Hall and have to say I thoroughly enjoyed it. Some of
the plot twists I figured out, while a few left me waiting for the final reveal. Miss
Dido is an outspoken "spinster" trying to come to the aid of her one time ward
and niece; she does it within the confine of the social mores of the times. It was
a quick read and fun if you enjoy the Regency period and mysteries.
