The Dragon Sleeps by Ellen Read
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

It's the 1920s and Thomas Thornton, antiques dealer, is hosting a weekend party at his home, Thornton Park, near Melbourne, with his twenty-one year old daughter, Alexandra, as hostess. But the atmosphere seems strained even while the guests view the priceless artefacts on display in the house, and heighten when a body is discovered in the orchard. Theft and threats continue, but will more bodies be discovered.
An entertaining historical cozy mystery with just the right amount of romance. A well-written story and a good start to the series with its cast of well-defined and interesting characters.
I received a complimentary copy of the book from the author via Voracious Readers Only
