The Painted Lady by Edward Marston
Araminta Jewell is one of the beauties of her day; a witty, resourceful, dazzling young lady who manages to resist all the blandishments that come her way. This book talks about this beautiful woman, an unrequited love, and an excuse for murder. It scratches below the facade of seventeenth century London to reveal the dark depths beneath.
'Consummate story-telling, a love of period and astute characterisation and plotting are the hallmarks of all his books.. The past is brought to life with brilliant colours, combined with a perfect whodunit. Who needs more?' Guardian
