A Five Star Review

Five reasons I'm giving five stars to

the Wrexford & Sloane mysteries by  Andrea Penrose:

1. The setting - This mystery series takes us to

Regency London (aka Jane Austen time), both

to the glittering high society and the dark

underbelly, and dead bodies are everywhere.

2. The protagonists - Charlotte Sloane is a

satirical cartoonist with a complicated past;

the Earl of Wexford is a chemist with a 

complicated character. And they are both

wonderful characters that grow on you 

from one book to the next and a great pair.

3. Caring is sharing - Each book sees new

characters, many of them unconventional,

that join our little group of fighters for

truth and justice. Love the way they all

interact with out two main protagonists.

4. The history- The author likes to weave

important developments in science

and technology into the books. It is gently

done and adds an interesting background

to the stories.

5. In short - If you like a well plotted

mystery with excitement and twists, interesting

settings, attractive characters, a pinch

of history and a dash of romance,

they could well be the series for you.
