Editorial Review:
fresh from a six-month sojourn in Italy, Lady Julia returns home to Sussex to find her father's estate crowded with family and friends— but dark deeds are afoot at the deconsecrated abbey, and a murderer roams the ancient cloisters.
Much to her surprise, the one man she had hoped to forget—the enigmatic and compelling Nicholas Brisbane—is among her father's houseguests… and he is not alone. Not to be outdone, Julia shows him that two can play at flirtation and promptly introduces him to her devoted, younger, titled Italian count.
But the homecoming celebrations quickly take a ghastly turn when one of the guests is found brutally murdered in the chapel, and a member of Lady Julia's own family confesses to the crime. Certain of her cousin's innocence, Lady Julia resumes her unlikely and deliciously intriguing partnership with Nicholas Brisbane, setting out to unravel a tangle of deceit before the killer can strike again. When a sudden snowstorm blankets the abbey like a shroud, it falls to Lady Julia and Nicholas Brisbane to answer the shriek of murder most foul.

Rating: - Much better than the first novel
This book was definitely better than the last. To a point I did enjoy [book:Silent in the Grave], but the solving point I felt ruined what could have been a perfectly great mystery. But that's enough about that. I really enjoyed this one. This was not just one mystery, but several wrapped up in one. There was some romance and extreme feelings between various persons and trying to see them was a task. I enjoyed this story, and it makes me anxious to read [book: Silent on the Moor], because I believe ... Read More
Rating: - shamefully delicious
If you need to get lost for a day or so, but just cant bring your brain to absord "The world without us" or "The God Delusion" get this book, a big beach umbrella and enjoy. Sure, its bubblegum, but fabulous bubblegum. The charachters are fun and absorbing and the story holds its own. Some dialogue is hokey, but nothing that will cause you any real pain. Seriously worth it.
Rating:  - Disappointing sequel
This less-than-successful follow up to Silent in the Grave does not have the clever plotting found in the first installment. The pace drags until the murder finally happens halfway through the book.
