In Want of a Suspect by Tirzah Price (promo and review)


In Want of a Suspect by Tirzah Price

It is a truth universally acknowledged, that London’s first female solicitor in possession of the details of a deadly crime, must be in want of a suspect.

The tenacious Lizzie Bennet has earned her place at Longbourn, her father’s law firm. Her work keeps her busy, but luckily she often has help from (and steals occasional kisses with) Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy, a stern but secretly soft-hearted solicitor at Pemberley.

Lizzie is hired to investigate a deadly warehouse fire, and to find the mysterious woman who was spotted at the scene moments before the flames took hold. But when the case leads her to the sitting room of a woman Darcy once proposed marriage to, the delicate balance between personal and professional in their relationship is threatened.

Questions of the future are cast aside when the prime suspect is murdered and Lizzie’s own life is threatened. As the body count rises, and their suspicions about what was really going on in the warehouse grow, the pressure is on for Lizzie and Darcy to uncover the truth.

Lizzie and Darcy are back for more suspense, danger, and romance in this first in a duology spinoff of the Jane Austen Murder Mysteries!

review

So happy to be back with Lizzie and Darcy.

This is a spinoff from another series. You can read it by itself, but I recommend reading at least book one from the other series first.

Without getting into the mystery too much, I have to say that I liked this one a lot. It kept me wanting to read and not put it down. The addition of Guy was great and I was happy to see many repeat characters. The book has lots of feminism without going overboard. This one stood out a bit because of the other characters. I loved the majority of them and hope to see some of them in book two.

I gave this book 5 stars. Can’t wait for the next one.

Thank you to the publisher and Netgalley for my earc.
