As a big fan of Diana Gabaldon, I didnt need to know anything about this novel to know I wanted to read it. Lord John is a character I quite enjoyed in the Outlander series, and I was glad to find this, his first solo novel, at the library recently. I did not know this was going to be a murder mystery until I started reading it, and what a lovely little mystery it was!

We follow Lord John through various scenes in London, trying to unravel the mystery of the murder of OConnell, as well as a familial mystery Lord John happens to stumble upon. Im not the kind of person who tries to figure out a mystery ahead of time, so I was just along for the ride and I really enjoyed it. Not only do we get to spend the entire time with Lord John, he speaks throughout the book of Jamie Fraser, our dashing hero of the Outlander novels.
