Murder in Matrimony

Summary

Countess-turned-advice columnist Amelia Amesbury has a wedding to plan, alongside a new murder in this charmingly deadly historical mystery.

Countess Amelia Amesbury has her work cut out. As well as balancing her alter ego—secret advice columnist Lady Agony—and the blackmailer threatening to reveal her real identity, her sister has also announced she is getting married. It’s joyous news but places all the planning for a high-society wedding firmly at Amelia’s door.

Luckily, her good friend and local vicar Mr. Cross has agreed to the expedited nuptials, so that’s one less thing to worry about—that is, until Cross is found dead at the church. Now in between bridal arrangements, Amelia must follow the clues that Mr. Cross left behind.

Clearly, he had made some enemies during his parishioner work, as strange mishaps begin to occur wherever Amelia goes. But when the danger becomes all too real, Amelia must rely on her friends and the handsome Simon Bainbridge to help solve the murder and save the wedding—and Amelia’s life too.

Perfect for fans of witty historical mystery and Regency romances with a similar feel to Verity Bright and T. E. Kinsey.
