Reviews
"Praise For the Miss Morton Mystery Series By Catherine Lloyd: ""[A] lively historical cozy...Numerous plausible suspects and perceptive observations on the period’s social mores make this an entertaining entry in the series. More Morton mysteries would be welcome.” –Publishers Weekly on Miss Morton and the Spirits of the Underworld “A charming combination of mystery, Regency romance, and social mores.” –Kirkus Reviews on Miss Morton and the Spirits of the Underworld “A thoroughly captivating Victorian whodunit.” –Historical Novel Society on Miss Morton and the Spirits of the Underworld “A fast paced, well-written walk through London’s high society in 1838.” –New York Journal of Books on Miss Morton and the Spirits of the Underworld “Social injustices, prejudices, and all things Regency, including the appropriate flowery narrative, may be hard pills for present-day readers to swallow, but are era appropriate and well researched in this superb series debut. Caroline is an absolute gem of a heroine, whom readers will surely come to love as she bravely maneuvers through polite society to gather evidence and determine whodunit. Regardless of the unresolved ending, fans of historical mysteries and uncompromising women protagonists will find Miss Morton and the English House Party Murder impossible to put down.” –Mystery Scene Magazine “A charming cross between a Regency romance and a well-constructed detective story with a surprising denouement.” –Kirkus Reviews on Miss Morton and the English House Party Murder “[A] smart and colorful sleuthing trio.” –Publishers Weekly on Miss Morton and the English House Party Murder “Utterly engrossing.” –Historical Novel Society on Miss Morton and the English House Party Murder “Lloyd’s story has myriad twists and turns—enough to keep the reader entranced—all the while thinking they have solved the crime and discovering that they have not. Lloyd’s imagination takes us on a roller coaster ride through the murders, romances, illicit affairs, and secrets of Regency England, enough so it is hard to put the book down.” –New York Journal of Books on Miss Morton and the English House Party Murder"
