Verity finally has to visit her home and family, something she's avoided for years, ever since her brother was killed in the war. A lot of the book is concerned with coming to terms with her brother's death and her controlling mother. But then, of course, there is the murder.
While the Kent's enemy, Lord Ardmore, is mention occasionally, he doesn't make an appearance. Which is fine, as reading about great conspiracies is not for me. Instead, we are confronted with solving a 'simple' murder, which I enjoyed.
