About the Series

“Penrose mixes well thought out mysteries, early forensic science, great details of the era and a slow burning attraction creating a compulsive read.”
—The New York Public Library

“Penrose rewards diligent readers with a pulse-pounding climax, and her deep dive into early 18th-century technology is a treat. In the crowded field of Regency mysteries, this series stands out.”
—Publishers Weekly on Murder at King’s Crossing
