Death in the Last Reel: Another intriguing Edwardian mystery (Dr Margaret Demeray Book 2) – by Paula Harmon. I said ridiculous prices and now the second in the series… not quite FREE this time, but close to it.
As you know it’s set in Edwardian London, a pioneering female pathologist must continue to defy societal expectations and confront a web of espionage, murder, and betrayal to uncover the truth behind a growing threat to the city.
After the violent murder of three policemen in the line of duty, tensions between London constabulary and Whitechapel anarchists simmer. Meanwhile accusations and counter accusations of espionage further weaken relations between Germany and Britain. (Isn’t it a fascinating period). When Fox asks Margaret to help with a mission, she can’t wait to assist. But enquiries in wealthy Hampstead, and assaults in Whitechapel backstreets lead to genteel Glassmakers Lane. How can a place where a moving picture studio is the only thing of interest be important? And is the death of a young woman Margaret can’t forget ,a critical link or a coincidental irrelevance? How can Margaret persuade Fox to stop protecting her so that she can ask the questions he can’t? @ https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0DYTS9M4G/ £0.99 instead of £2.99 for now.
