Synopsis
&“Mixing Romance and Mystery in a Fizzy 1930s Cocktail!&”&“Series fans will cheer the beginning of Clive and Henrietta&’s private investigation business in an entry with welcome echoes of Pride and Prejudice.&” ― Publishers Weekly&“The mix of sleuthing and aristocratic life pairs well with Rhys Bowen&’s Royal Spyness series.&” ― Booklist &“A story full of family secrets, twisted plots, and a striking English setting, A Promise Given is the perfect novel for fans of Sherlock Holmes.&” — Brit + Co.This third book in the Henrietta and Inspector Howard series provides a delightful romp through the English countryside and back.Anxious to be married, Henrietta and Clive push forward with their wedding plans despite their family differences, made worse now by Oldrich Exley&’s attempts to control the Von Harmons. When the long-awaited wedding day arrives, there is more unfolding than just Clive and Henrietta&’s vows of love. Stanley and Elsie&’s relationship is sorely tested by the presence of the dashing Lieutenant Harrison Barnes-Smith and by Henrietta&’s friend Rose—a situation that grows increasingly dark and confused as time goes on.As Clive and Henrietta begin their honeymoon at Castle Linley, the Howards&’ ancestral estate in England, they encounter a whole new host of characters, including the eccentric Lord and Lady Linley and Clive&’s mysterious cousin, Wallace. When a man is murdered in the village on the night of a house party at the Castle, Wallace comes under suspicion—and Clive and Henrietta are reluctantly drawn into the case, despite Clive&’s anxiety at involving his new bride and Henrietta&’s distracting news from home.Delicately attempting to work together for the first time, Clive and Henrietta set out to prove Wallace&’s innocence, uncovering as they do so some rather shocking truths that will shake the Linley name and estate forever.
