Lady Darling Inquires After a Killer
Lady Bridgerton meets The Thursday Murder Club in the first of a charming, Victorian-set mystery series from bestselling author Colleen Gleason.
Lady Darling is a woman “of a certain age.” Fifty, to be specific—which, in the eyes of London society, makes her uninteresting, eccentric, and a little intimidating.
She’s a widow.
An empty-nester (all of her children very successfully married-off).
She’s titled, influential…and very, very rich.
Now she just wants to be left alone to enjoy her pets and her gardens and her books.
Until someone turns up dead at a dinner party, and Lady Darling is on the scene.
What’s a smart, responsible, capable woman to do?
Find the killer, of course!
A thrilling, witty romp of a mystery series, the Lady Darling books will find fans with readers of historical cozies, Bridgerton, and The Thursday Murder Club.
