For fans of Maisie Dobbs, a riveting new Edwardian mystery series featuring detective heiress Ursula Marlow
Ursula Marlow, the star of this richly detailed, beautifully paced, deeply romantic mystery, is a strong female heroine with whom fans of Dorothy Sayers, Sarah Waters, Anne Perry, and Jacqueline Winspear's Maisie Dobbs series will instantly fall in love. An Oxford graduate active in the battle for women's suffrage, Ursula is not your typical Edwardian heiress. Her once-charmed life takes a frightening turn when a fellow suffragette and friend is accused of murder. As Ursula digs deeper to discover the truth and clear her friend's tarnished name, she is drawn into a mystery that raises troubling questions about her own father's connection to the murder victim.
Langley-Hawthorne follows in the pertly trod path set by Jacqueline Winspear. . . . Consequences of Sin is more Dorothy Sayers than CSI, which isn't a bad thing at all.

Consequences of Sin
I enjoy a good historical mystery, especially when the main protagonist is a strong independent woman. Unfortunately when Ursula is asked by a friend to help with a dead body, the first thing she does is calls a man, Lord Wrotham, when he arrives she bursts into tears, then he escorts her away with, to quote the author a slow, almost seductive gesture.
That was enough for me, the book didn't live up to its own 'introductory blurb' and certainly not to my expectations.
