(Review contains slight spoilers from the previous series.)It's always a good day when Jessica Baker releases a new book! I'm super excited about this new series set in Lady Thea's universe.After following the mysteries and murders that befell Lady Thea, [b:Murder at the Midnight Ball 171849606 Murder at the Midnight Ball (A Prescott House Mystery #1) Jessica Baker https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1685972262l/171849606.SY75.jpg 180436624] introduces us to new perspectives with familiar faces: Wilhelmina and James. The POV jumps back and forth as they try to solve the murder of Simon Swinton and clear James' cousin Emma from the list of suspects. While Lady Thea does make a few appearances, she's busy with a case of her own.I loved getting to know James and Wilhelmina more personally. They are such assets in the Lady Thea books and they stand strong in the limelight. Each half of the story flowed together nicely. I also enjoyed the hints of Thea's relationship with Inspector Thayne.At this point, reading about these characters is like visiting old friends. This series promises to stand strongly and proudly next to the former and I'm excited to watch them, particularly Wilhelmina, continue to grow in future installments. Wonderful as always!A huge thanks to the author for sending me a free digital ARC of the book! I will also be purchasing a paperback copy.
