Murder in Chelsea (Gaslight, Bk 15)
robinmy avatar reviewed on + 2060 more book reviews


Midwife Sarah Brandt's world is turned upside down when she is told that there has been an inquiry about Catherine, the abandoned child that now lives with her. Anne Murphy claims to be the child's nursemaid. She says she wants to reunite Catherine with her mother. Not trusting Anne Murphy at all, Sarah enlists the help of Detective Sergeant Frank Malloy. But when Frank tries to talk to Miss Murphy, he finds she has been murdered.

Book 15 in the Gaslight Mystery series is another winner. Actually, the mystery was personal to Sarah, Frank, and the other characters that appear in this series. That made this story a step above the usual installment. The mystery was intriguing. There were a handful of suspects to eliminate. The best part of this story for me was Sarah and Frank. There was a huge twist near the end of the story that I never saw coming. It will impact the series from here on. I can't wait for the next book. My rating: 5 Stars.
