A Fortune Most Fatal is the second in the Miss Austen Investigates series and I loved it just as much as the first. What could be more fun than a series where Jane Austen turns detective?
This is the second in the series and honestly, you need to buy this one and get t Miss Austen Investigates too. I have enjoyed both but this one was especially delightful. Think I understood the character more and got to know her better. She was quite the woman if this series is anything to go by.
There’s a mystery surrounding her brother’s possible inheritance in this one. Jane wants to find out who might be getting this inheritance instead of him and why. Go on Jane! I thought. A strong woman like this was perhaps not as common back in her day. So it’s a refreshing change to see an iconic woman, au author herself, portrayed in such a way.
The relationship between Jane and the characters who feel she is being too nosy is just a delight to witness. The remarks, the asides, the tongue in cheekiness of it all. Topping it comes the strength and character of who Jane Austen really was. I am THERE for it!
To make things even better, the novel lets you see inside Godmersham Park and honestly I so want to go here in real life! To see the characters wandering from room to room, in the grounds etc is brilliant. A booktrail in real time! It’s a wonderful mix of reality, fiction and a little bit of magic.
Next one please Miss Bull! And I shall ready the hansom cab to transport me to the book shop when it be written!
