Absolutely loved this book was gripped from the start, murder mystery and intrigue what more could you ask for, highly recommended

I love a good 1920s book. It kind of reminded my of the phryne fisher books which is a 1920s Aussie based series. Super cute and cheeky. Really enjoyed and will keep a look out for the rest of the series

Death at Darrington Manor was an enjoyable read with a cosy crime feel of authors such as Agatha Christie, Edward Marston to name a couple.

The main character Abigail was very well written as a strong woman in very much a male world. She came across as a very much likeable character.

Death at Darrington Manor is the second book in a series however I didn't feel lost by the plot or characters. There were references to what I assume was book 1 but they were subtle and didn't effect the plot.

The book was incredibly easy and enjoyable to read and gave me great feels.

Abby is trying to become a hard news reporter, but keeps being given fluff pieces to write. When she is invited to a society wedding in England, her editor is thrilled. Abby is not. The wedding is between the daughter of a Lord and the son of an American car tycoon. He has decided he wants Abby to write about the wedding (because of her previous notoriety) and he always gets what he wants. After Abby arrives at the manor, the soon to be groom is in a car accident. Was it an accident and just who was the intended victim? When a death occurs, is the wrong person arrested?
This is a fun, country manor cozy with a “plucky” heroine.
Thanks to Storm Publishing and NetGalley for the ARC.

Death at Darrington Manor was a fun read. The story was engaging, and the solution to the mystery was surprising, but felt believable. I would definitely read more Abigail Dixon mysteries!
