Betrayal in Time by Julie Mcelwain
Kendra Donovans adventures in nineteenth-century England continue when she is called upon to investigate the murder of a spymaster.
"OutstandingWith perfect pacing, McElwain holds the reader’s interest from the first page to the last." * Publishers Weekly (starred) *
"McElwain cleverly expresses Donovan’s modernity and forensic expertise without betraying the concept of the series: Here is a character who is out of place in time, but still manages to get along in the 19th century, giving readers a blend of crime scene investigation and historical period color." * Historical Novels Review *
"An unusual, absorbing tale. Well-integrated story lines involve Kendra’s romance and a grief-stricken family whose son’s fate is an education in the horrors of war. The highlight here, however, is the time-travel aspect, which sees FBI investigatory skills muted to match the knowledge and mores of the day." * Booklist *
"A much improved mystery, a touch of history, and the obligatory romance combine for a pleasing read." * Kirkus Reviews *
"An entertaining mystery with considerable period detail and a touch of romance. Fans of historical mysteries with strong female characters, such as Rhys Bowen’s ‘Molly Murphy’ series or Laurie King’s ‘Mary Russell’ books will enjoy." * Library Journal *
"A deftly crafted and unique time-travel based mystery, Betrayal in Time is a thoroughly entertaining page-turner of a read from beginning to end." * Midwest Book Review *
