Candy's Pick
Brunswick Gardens
by Anne Perry
Anne Perry writes mystery stories ocurring in England's Victorian Age. She writes a couple of series of mystery stories with different protagonists, but the ones with Charlotte and Thomas Pitt figuring out whodunit are my favorite. Thomas Pitt is Superintendent and is given charge of handling sensitive cases of murder usually involving members of Parliament, the English aristocracy, and even in Buckingham Palace. All of it occurs with the backdrop in the day and age when Queen Victoria reigned over England and at that time, most of the planet. Her description of the characters, their dress, scenes, buildings, and even English cockney accents, is worth the read.
