Book Reviews of Jane and the Stillroom Maid: Being the Fifth Jane Austen Mystery

Book Review: mystery that's a little bit different
Summary: 4 Stars

This book is the fifth in the Jane Austen Mystery series. (The first is 'Jane and the Unpleasantness at Scargrave Manor',which is also very good.) Stephanie Barron has created a series of fictional mysteries with Jane Austen like a Regency Miss Marple, this is very convincingly done and she has researched Austen's life and also deals with some of the issues she faced. As such Austen fans may be interested in this series, but from a mystery point of view this book stands on its own merits. The story takes place in Derbyshire, where Jane visited in the Summer of 1806, and like most in this series the plot is complex and so therefore I found the pace a bit slow at times, but the ending was well worth the wait. I recommend this book to any fan of cosy/traditional or historical mysteries.
