Murder in Matrimony (A Lady of Letters Mystery)
by Mary Winters
5 stars!
Murder in Matrimony has everything I’ve loved about the previous books and more: wonderful characters who just keep getting better and better, a Victorian England setting, a well-plotted mystery, and a perfect ending!
~Christy’s Cozy Corners
Love, loyalty, and family combine in a cracking good mystery, making MURDER IN MATRIMONY one of my favorite, if not my most favorite, reads of the year.
~Cozy Up With Kathy
For fans of Father Brown and Downtown Abbey, Murder in Matrimony will transport readers for a stirring ride through Victorian-era London. Another delightful 5-star romp with Lady Amelia Amesbury!
~The Mystery of Writing
Murder in Matrimony by Mary Winters hit all the right notes for me – smart, engaging, romantic, witty, and endlessly entertaining. The epilogue at the end, while I loved it, feels almost like a series farewell as it brings some plot arcs full circle, and I’m so hoping it’s not because I could happily read new adventures with Amelia and Simon for years to come.

Countess-turned-advice columnist Amelia Amesbury has a wedding to plan alongside a new murder in this charmingly deadly historical mystery.
Countess Amelia Amesbury has her work cut out. As well as balancing her alter ego—secret advice columnist, Lady Agony—and the blackmailer threatening to reveal her real identity, her sister has also announced she’s getting married. It’s joyous news, but places all the planning for a high society wedding firmly at Amelia’s door.
Luckily, her good friend and local vicar Mr. Cross has agreed to the expedited nuptials, so that’s one less thing to worry about. Until Cross is found dead at the church. Now in between bridal arrangements, Amelia must follow the clues Mr. Cross left behind.
Clearly, he’d made some enemies during his parishioner work, as strange mishaps begin to occur wherever Amelia goes. But when the danger becomes all too real, Amelia must rely on her friends and the handsome Simon Bainbridge to help solve the murder, save the wedding, and Amelia’s life too . . .
Perfect for fans of witty historical mystery and Regency romances with a similar feel to Verity Bright and T.E. Kinsey.
