MURDER, I SPY Dora and Rex 1920s Mysteries, Book 1

Pearl Hewitt narrates the first episode in this new, highly entertaining mystery series set in the upper echelons of 1920s London society. Aristocratic Lady Dorothy shows up in the drawing rooms of the elite as the glamorous femme fatale Dora Laurent. When Dora's lover, Freddie, is murdered, she proceeds to investigate and to catch the criminals. She is joined by Reginald Bankes-Fernsby, who is nearly as uptight as his name would indicate. Hewitt deftly manages the scenes of high drama and expertly delivers the diverse speech patterns of men and women of all classes. The novel is followed by a prequel, MURDER AT THE FRONT, which recounts how Dora and Rex got started in intelligence work during the Great War.
