It's been less than 48 hours since Kate has arrived in England for her new job ... and in that time there's been a fire (that destroyed unique and one-of-a-kind documents), a body was found stuffed under the stairs of the house that burned, someone is shooting at Kate, and she's been fired! (She has yet to recover from jet lag since flying in from California, too). Is there a connection, and if so, what, or how? Death in an English Cottage, the second Murder on Location book, by Sara Rosett was a one day read!

In A Wicked Conceit, one of the Lady Darby Mystery books, by Anna Lee Huber, Kiera is expecting, and very near her due date. A book has been published, a 'tell all' sort of book written as fiction. It has been made into a play. At that time, there was no such thing as copyright so books could be made into plays, songs, skits, etc., without any money or recognition going to the original author. It contains some untrue things about Kiera and her husband, and a known crook, but there is not much they can do about it. And, a sequel is in the works! Then, the publisher is found dead. To clear their names, and oddly, help out the crook, an investigation ensues. :-) This book takes place during the cholera pandemic. Author mentions how she wrote about one pandemic while living during another!
