DEATH OF NO IMPORTANCE
by Mariah Fredericks
The backstairs folk always see more than the upper class
folks think. Lady’s maid Jane sees and thinks.
The writing is good with great characterization, good atmosphere, a
realistic portrayal of time and place.
Fredericks throws in some real people and real incidents to give breadth
to her story.
This is the first of a series with Jane as the sleuth in a
tightly crafted mystery.
The death is pretty gruesome but, for the squeamish,
not dwelled upon. Also, no foul language
or steamy sex, just a really good mystery with fully fleshed out characters.
5 of 5 stars
