This novella is part of the Herringford and Watts series. This series works a bit different than most, and if you want to see a breakdown of where everything belongs, you can read the beginning of my review on A Lesson in Love and Murder.
Since this is so short, I'll keep it brief. Jasper is out for a night at the vaudeville, and Ray is there covering a story. It wasn't supposed to end in murder. Luckily, Merinda and Jem are nearby, so they can solve the mystery.
As usual, the author does a great job writing a solid story, even with it being short. There are references to the other stories here and there, but it's all there in a way that you don't feel lost at all. I love the women's style and the way they work together. I'm still sympathetic to Jasper and hope for more of him in the upcoming book, The White Feather Murders, due out in May.
This was a great story, and I highly recommend it. Good Novella!
A little bit about what you'll find reviewed here
A little bit about what you'll find reviewed on this blog: I believe the best books involve characters you wish you could read more about long after the book is finished. Recently, I've been searching for hidden gems from the past. I read mostly fiction, and I'm a bit of a prude. I don't normally enjoy books with sex or excessive language.

Who I am:
I raised two wonderful girls, and I'm super proud of them. I enjoy reading (of course), sewing, cross stitching, photography and writing. I live in the high desert portion of Washington (which I didn't know existed until my husband and I decided to move here) and have really enjoyed my time out here. I am excited to see what God has next in store for my life!
