Penny for Your Secrets by Anna Lee Huber
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
1919 After an evening spent at the home of Ada, a friend of Verity, she and her husband Sidney are awoken by a telephone call saying that Ada's husband, the Marquess of Rockham had been killed. Not trusting DCI Thoreau not to arrest her as the obvious suspect, she asks Verity to investigate. But Verity has also been approached by old friend Irene Shaw, to determine who killed her half-sister Esther was not an opportune burglar. While coping with her husband's guilt over the war.
This is the third in the series, though it can be read as a standalone, the story can be better understood after reading the first two. For me this is so far the best of the series.
An interesting well-written mystery with the introduction of an intriguing character (being portrayed as a a villain) opposed to Verity.
