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!
