The second in the delightful Thomazine and Major Thankful Russell mystery series set just after the English Civil War. This one sees our intrepid duo travelling to Bruges on the hunt for a missing person.
I very much enjoyed the first book, An Abiding Fire, so was looking forward to reading this one and I can honestly say it didn’t disappoint. It’s entertaining and fun! Historical fact is cleverly combined with fiction to tell an intriguing and engaging story and it’s written in the author’s individual, amusing and quirky style. Thomazine and Thankful are fantastic characters and I am becoming quite invested in their lives. I can’t wait to find out what life throws at them next! If you enjoy tales set during the Restoration/King Charles II era, why not give this series a try! You’ll be glad that you did.… (altro)

This is the first in the Thomazine and Thankful Russell historical thrillers set in Restoration London. In this enjoyable mystery Thankful finds himself under suspicion of murder and treason and the race is on to clear his name.
An exciting and entertaining romp set during, in my opinion, a hugely interesting time in history. I love the characters of the spirited Thomazine and her stoic and lovable husband, Thankful - they are a delight and very memorable! The style of writing is lively, engaging and amusing. There is also a good sense of time and place. This is a good introduction to what promises to be, I’m sure, a dynamic new detective duo and I look forward to reading more of the Russells’ fascinating adventures.… (altro)

An enjoyable Restoration historical mystery with, thankfully, just a hint of romance. A very good solid start to this new series and overall I like the characters.
