This gem of a historical cozy mystery series shines in its sixth outing.

Amateur sleuths Sir Robert and wife Lucy have traveled to Bath on doctor's advice so that Sir Robert can regain his health after another bout with the lingering effects of his wounded leg. The couple is on better footing after the events of book five which revealed stressors in the marriage. Once in Bath, Sir Robert becomes acquainted with the blustery, wealthy Sir William who is soon murdered while visiting Bath's legendary hot springs.

Each of Sir William's family members has ample motive for doing away with the difficult patriarch, so Lucy and Sir Robert have their work cut out for them. Red herrings abound as do subplots involving the couple's friends and family members. Lucy is also keeping a secret of her own that will cause readers to anticipate the next book in the series.

The Kurland St. Mary Mysteries are well plotted and pleasurable reads with likable protagonists and supporting characters, a delightful treat for readers.

Full Disclosure--Net Gallery and the publisher provided me with a digital ARC of this book. This is my honest review.
