Series: Countess Of Harleigh Mystery,

In A Lady's Guide to Etiquette and Murder, the Victorian version of Aurora Teagarden investigates murder in the aristocratic world of Edith Wharton, introducing readers to Countess Frances Wynn and her society cohorts. With some romantic undertones, this historical mystery hits all the high notes- elites behaving badly, historical intrigue, and female independence. Perfect for fans of fans of Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries and Jane Austen alike.

In this exciting historical mystery debut set in Victorian England, a wealthy young widow encounters the pleasures-and scandalous pitfalls-of a London social season . . .

Frances Wynn, the American-born Countess of Harleigh, enjoys more freedom as a widow than she did as a wife. With her young daughter in tow, Frances rents a home in Belgravia and prepares to welcome her sister, Lily, arriving from New York-for her first London season.

But no sooner has Frances begun her new life than the Metropolitan police receive an anonymous letter implicating Frances in her husband's death. Frances assures Inspector Delaney of her innocence, but she's also keen to keep him from learning the scandalous circumstances of Reggie's demise. As fate would have it, her dashing new neighbor, George Hazelton, is one of only two other people aware of the full story.

While busy with social engagements on Lily's behalf, and worrying if Reggie really was murdered, Frances rallies her wits, a circle of gossips, and the ever-chivalrous Mr. Hazelton to uncover the truth. A killer is in their midst and Frances must unmask the villain before Lily's season-and their lives-come to a most unseemly end . . .

""This lighthearted debut tale of mystery, love, and a delightful sleuth will leave you wanting more-which is presumably just what Freeman had in mind.""
