Mystery Historical
A Death by Any Other Name is a delightful Edwardian
mystery set in the English countryside. Building on the
success of her last two mysteries in the same series, Tessa
Arlen returns us to the same universe full of secrets,
intrigue, and, this time, roses. The elegant Lady Montfort and her redoubtable housekeeper
Mrs. Jackson's services are called upon after a cook is
framed and dismissed for poisoning a guest of the Hyde Rose
Society. Promising to help her regain her job and her
dignity, the pair trek out to the countryside to investigate
a murder of concealed passions and secret desires. There,
they are to discover a villain of audacious cunning among a
group of mild-mannered, amateur rose-breeders. While they
investigate, the rumor mill fills with talk about a conflict
over in Prussia where someone quite important was shot.
There is talk of war and they must race the clock to solve
the mystery as the idyllic English summer days count down to
the start of WWI. Brimming with intrigue, Tessa Arlen's latest does not
disappoint.
