Murder is never far from this sexy couple . . . even during the holidays!
Their honeymoon abruptly ended by the untimely death of Alcott Howard, Clive and Henrietta return to Highbury, where Clive discovers all is not as it should be. Increasingly convinced that his father’s death was not an accident, Clive launches his own investigation, despite his mother’s belief that he has become “mentally disturbed” with grief. Henrietta eventually joins forces with Clive on their first real case, which becomes darker—and deadlier—than they imagined as they get closer to the truth behind Alcott’s troubled affairs.
Meanwhile, Henrietta’s sister, Elsie, begins, at Henrietta’s orchestration, to take classes at a women’s college—an attempt to evade her troubles and prevent any further romantic temptations. When she meets a bookish German custodian at the school, however, he challenges her to think for herself . . . even as she discovers some shocking secrets about his past life.
About the Author:
Michelle Cox is the author of the multiple award-winning Henrietta and Inspector Howard series as well as “Novel Notes of Local Lore,” a weekly blog dedicated to Chicago’s forgotten residents. She suspects she may have once lived in the 1930s and, having yet to discover a handy time machine lying around, has resorted to writing about the era as a way of getting herself back there. Coincidentally, her books have been praised by Kirkus, Library Journal, Publishers Weekly, Booklist, and many others, so she might be on to something. Unbeknownst to most, Michelle hoards board games she doesn’t have time to play and is, not surprisingly, addicted to period dramas and big band music. Also marmalade.
A Veil Removed Review:
A Veil Removed is a wonderful comeback to the series as the book is filled with adventure, romance, mystery with one of my favorite fictional couple.
As I continue the series, I fall in love with the characters more than before. Clive and Henrietta share a wonderful chemistry and face various adventures and dilemmas in each story. In this book, Clive’s father suddenly dies, and the couple investigate whether it was an accident or not. I am loving Elsie more and more. Moreover, Elsie and Gunther share an adorable relationship and I wanted to see how it progressed
Moreover, I thought this book was a wonderful improvement from the previous one. I was a bit disappointed with Book 3 because the story focused a lot on the characters, and not much on the mystery. However, the author came back on full form and provided a nice mystery in this one.
Another aspect I liked is how the author compliments the tone of the story between the characters. While reading, I felt that the theme was serious around Clive and Henrietta. However, Elsie and Gunther’s story-line is light-hearted and endearing. On a side note, I also like the mystery surrounding Gunther’s secret from his past.
Similar to the previous books, the author does an amazing job in making the 1930’s Chicago come to life. I loved the details she adds to the character’s lifestyles, their clothes, and their surroundings. It made me feel like I was living in that era and physically present with the characters. The book also ends with few plots left open – ended, which would be hopefully answered in the next book.
Overall, I really enjoyed this book, and I thought it was almost as good as the very first book in the series.
