Murder at the Brightwell

Murder at the Brightwell by Ashley Weaver
325 Pages

This was a Library Reads pick for October  and is a murder mystery set in 1930's England.  Amory Ames is a woman in an unhappy marriage to a playboy.  When her former fiancee asks for her help in dissuading his sister from marrying a man with similar character, she embarks on a holiday at the sea.  When a murder occurs, Amory tries to figure out who is responsible, but there are many suspects.

 Several people seemed to have liked this mystery, but I didn't feel engaged by Amory or any of the other characters.  For this reason I wouldn't recommend this book to a mystery lover.
