TWO NEW REVIEWS FROM SUZANNE

I have two books this week. The first is a cozy mystery set in Victorian England. I liked the characters immediately and thought it was a good mystery. I already have the second book in the series in my bookshelf.

The Inspector and Mrs Jeffries - Mrs. Jeffries, Bk 1
Author: Emily Brightwell


IS THERE A DETECTIVE IN THE HOUSE? She keeps house for Inspector Witherspoon... and keeps him on his toes. Everyone is astonished by the inspector's Scotland Yard successes - but they don't know about his secret weapon. In fact, even he doesn't know about his secret weapon... because she's as ladylike as she is clever. No matter how messy the murder or how dirty the deed, Mrs. Jeffries' polished detection skills are up to the task... proving that behind every great man there's a woman - and that a crime-solver's work is never done...

This book I wasn't so sure about and ended up loving it. You end up rooting for Queen Victoria and her demon fighting skills! ~ Suzanne

Queen Victoria Demon Hunter
Author: A. E. Moorat



London, 1838. Queen Victoria is crowned; she receives the orb, the scepter, and an arsenal of bloodstained weaponry. If Britain is about to become the greatest power of the age, there’s the small matter of the undead to take care of first. Demons stalk the crown, and political ambitions have unleashed ravening hordes of zombies even within the nobility itself.

But rather than dreams of demon hunting, Queen Victoria’s thoughts are occupied by Prince Albert. Can she dedicate her life to saving her country when her heart belongs elsewhere?

With lashings of glistening entrails, decapitations, zombies, and foul demons, this masterly new portrait will give a fresh understanding of a remarkable woman, a legendary monarch, and quite possibly the best demon hunter the world has ever seen.


Thanks for sharing your reviews, Suzanne!
