By William Savage

Genre:-Historical Fiction

Blurb:-The Reverend the Honourable Henry Pryce-Perkins, to give him his full title, was the youngest son of a peer of the realm and a brilliant scholar at Oxford. After ordination, the Bishop of Norwich appointed him Warden of St Steven's Hospital, until such time as he could be found a suitably large and prestigious parish. Now he has been found murdered outside his own house, and the bishop and mayor expect Foxe to give all his time and attention to discovering who did it.

 A day or so later, a call from the street children sends Foxe hurrying to the death of a young woman, whose richly-dressed body has been found in a reputedly haunted house at the entrance to one of Norwich's notorious 'yards' clusters of wretched tenements housing the poorest people in the city.

 Needles to say, Foxe can't stop himself from getting involved in this new mystery as well. Now he's facing two complex investigations, while a personal crisis is also brewing, involving the latest woman in his life. Can Foxe concentrate on finding the murderers and bring them to justice, while disentangling himself from a relationship rapidly going sour? What about his two past lovers both seemingly eager to take up where they left off and about to arrive back in Norwich,

 As the complications continue to pile up. Ashmole Foxe will need to display even more cunning and determination then usual, if he hopes to solve the mysteries, untangle the knots in his personal life and return to a more stable existence.

My Review:-He's back, this is book 7 in "An Ashmole Foxe Georgian Mystery" and he hasn't disappointed me. Foxe is back again with some characters from pervious books. The mayor requests Foxe to solve the murder of a reverend. As normal Foxe can't just stick to one murder case, so he gets involved with another. Will both murder be connected?

 Foxe's love life is never straight forward and is getting worse by the series. Will he ever find true love?

You can read this as a standalone but personally I would recommend reading all of the books in the series.
