Bridgerton drama meets murder mystery!

Upon Lady Amelia Amesbury’s sister unexpectedly arriving in town to be presented in this year’s season, Lady Amelia is met with not just a murder occurring in her own ballroom but a jewellery thief on top of it! Lady Amelia must work quickly to solve the murder and clear her sister’s name.

Murder in Season is the third instalment in Mary Winters’ ‘A Lady of Letters’ series set in upper class 1840s London following Lady Amelia investigating the case.

Having not read the first two books I felt Winters did a good job of providing the character’s back stories and then moving on with the plot.

A witty historical mystery with a touch of romance, I found Murder in Season an easy read with enough twists to keep me interested.

Thank you to Net Galley and the publisher for providing me with this ARC. All views are my own.

I jumped at the opportunity to read this book early because I have been anxiously awaiting it since finishing book 2! This book is such an exciting addition to the series and kept me guessing until the very end on who the murderer would be. I absolutely love Amelia’s sister and hope to see more of her in future books. I highly recommend this series!

3.75 out of 5 stars!

Historical murder mystery with pretty covers are my weakness.

Here we are on book 3 of the 'A Lady of Letters Mystery' series, as we follow yet again our main character Amelia Amesbury who is countess by day and a secret advice columnist by night. In this instalment she gets a visit from her mother and younger sister Margaret, and they're both, especially her younger sister is in dire need for her help.

I wish I could have found out about this series much sooner. There's mystery, adventure, high societies, romance that will make your heart flutter and swoon, family chaos and much more.

Murder in Season ended beautifully with no plot holes left. But of course I wouldn't mind at all if we get more books in this series, I've already grown attached to all of the characters.

P.S. I have to pick up the previous books much sooner. This is a perfect cozy-mystery series with a hint of a swoon worthy romance.

A good edition to this developing series. Amelia shines as she navigates her troublesome sister, a death at her first ball, and a series of jewelry thefts. I do wish clues to determine the killer had been laid earlier, as there were a lot of characters introduced in this one. I’m just as interested in how Amelia navigates love interest Simon. Amelia and I have both been impatient with him, but things look promising for book 4, which I’m already eager for.

Murder in season is the third book in the Lady of letters mystery series.

Amelia's quiet season is disrupted when her sister Madge arrives at her door.

Murder and mayhem soon follow, leaving Amelia and Simon to try and find the culprit of 2 crimes: a murder and a string of robberies.

With her trademark wit, Amelia investigates and looks for clues founding help also in unexpected places.

Well rounded characters, a compelling story and traces of romance make this book a really enjoyable reading.

I am so curious about what will happen to Madge and Captain Fitz, can't wait for their next adventure!

I received an advance copy for free and I am leaving this review voluntarily, thanks to the author for it.

Murder in Season is the third in the Lady of Letters historical mystery series where a widowed countess is also an Agony Aunt newspaper columnist. I have enjoyed this series and this entry was no different. In fact, I think it was my favorite so far. Amelia has really come into her own as a strong, independent woman who might also want a little romance. I love how Amelia has taken what could be a very tough situation in life and has flourished as she has found herself and formed her own little family. Aunt Tabitha is a fantastic character in this series also and I would hate to be the person who gets on her bad side! The addition of her sister was lots of fun and the mystery itself really kept me guessing until the very end. I’m hoping the series will continue with more of Amelia and her friends and family. There are so many interesting situations that could come up in her life that the possibilities are endless.

Thank you NetGalley for the opportunity to review this book and offer my fair and honest opinion.

The third book in this Regency-set series sees Amelia dealing with more family drama, this time in the shape of a sister who gets into trouble when coming to London to escape some trouble at home. Amelia again has to step in to save the family name and protect loved ones when murder and theft ensue. As if that’s not enough she has complications of her own in the form of her relationship with Simon, her former husband’s best friend. This is a quick, enjoyable read. The mysteries are engaging and the personal relationships keep the story moving along at a good pace. It’s not clear if another book in the series will follow, but even if not, things are wrapped up nicely at the end. The Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for an advance copy. All views are entirely my own.

Amelia gets a surprise visit from her mother and her sister Madge. Her mother has brought Madge to London so that she can have a season looking for eligible men. At her debut into society Radcliffe is murdered after a fight with Madge. Although claiming her innocence the police are looking to find evidence against her. Amelia and Simon work together to find the real guilty party.
Goodreads

I must be honest, the first thing that got me into reading this book was the cover - straight out an old magazine: I loved it. I think I needed this book, a regency romance story where I can enjoy the plot while I empathize with the characters. I mean, times are different but relations between people and emotions never get old, never change. Relatable situations, relatable reactions, relatable mistakes.
I enjoyed this book, will totally read other titles from the author.
