An Oxford Revenge by Maxine BarryMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
Davina Granger, famous modern poet is out for revenge. Her step-brother David, said that English Don Gareth Lacey was driving him to despair. Now David is dead, a suicide. And she is now at St. Bede's in Oxford for four months as an honorary fellow putting her plan into action. But then she meets Lacey.
Meanwhile Alicia Norman has been coerced by friend Emily White, and Jared Cowan, producer, into writing a play, a murder mystery, for the St. Bede's Easter play. Jared is smittened with Alicia. But does Jared have a rival in Lord Rupert Greyling-Simms. When her brother Neville Norman, literary critic, sees a chance to connect his famous literary family with an aristocratic one, how far will he go.
The more the story continued the more I disliked Davina, out for revenge with no proof who is the guilty person.
Overall an interesting and well-written thriller. (There is mature content)
