Murder in Season is THAT book! It's so good and the characters are so perfect! The plot is beautiful and the storyline is so immaculate! I recommend everyone to read this book asap.

Murder in Season indeed!! What a cute and awesome mystery! I love anything to do with London and mysteries! I have a traditional heart when it comes to reading mysteries thanks to Agatha Christie! LOL☕

I was really intrigued when I noticed that each chapter starts off as a letter! Letters are keys to the soul in my opinion! The ink and paper into anyone's everyday life and thoughts! I became a detective and use these letters to determine what would become in each sentence. 🍾

A very engaging read! Definitely keeps you guessing!
I'm a huge fan of romance! And when it comes to mysteries romance is the heartbeat! The author did a fabulous job combining the slow burn romantic scenes and keep the suspense going on what would happen next!! 📰

The female hero is definitely ahead of her time! She's not afraid to find out the truth and keep moving she doesn't give up and I totally admire that! 💗

Bravo!! 🍨

A lot of charm and character. While interesting, the mystery unfortunately did fall flat for during the last chapters of the book, but that could possibly be due to how short it is. I would have appreciated a slightly longer ending to flesh out the aftermath of the mystery, as it left me with a lot of questions. However, I thought it was engaging and a good read. The characters were fantastic and the romance was a highlight.

I found myself encountering the Tiffany Problem, or a small version of that at times, where a real historical fact feels unrealistic, like referencing the smallpox vaccine and calling the houses “Edwardian”. Not a negative, but interesting and maybe something to consider.

For a rating, I am between a 3 and 4 stars.

Immerse yourself in the captivating world of a five-star historical cozy mystery set in the Victorian Era. Filled with charming characters, enthralling romance, and compelling intrigue, this book is the third installment in a delightful series that will leave you guessing until the final page. The well-crafted pace and engaging storyline make it a must-read. Don't miss out – secure your copy by pre-ordering today! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

MURDER IN SEASON by Mary Winters.
Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Amelia Amesbury continues to enchant! And solve murder mysteries, of course.

Since this is the third book in the A LADY OF LETTERS MYSTERY, I’m just going to list what I loved:
1. The Agony Aunt letters at the beginning of every chapter have so much wit and wisdom.
2. Multiple mysteries at the same time: jewel thefts and murder, oh my!
3. Amelia’s (Lady Amesbury) love and close relationships with her niece and aunt-in-law.
4. The London season and coming-out balls.
5. Amelia’s sister, Madge, is a feisty new character that was easy to love.
6. Amelia is such an enjoyable heroine who isn’t afraid to investigate and go under cover. Or fall in love.
7. I guessed wrong on the whodunnit of one of the mysteries…which will remain a mystery.
8. A slow burn romance with two kisses that were worth the wait!
9. Simon. Everything about him! Or should I say Lord Bainbridge?
10. The Epilogue. You’ll know why when you read it!

4 stars

I've jumped in at book 3 of the series. Our heroine is a commoner who has married into the aristocracy. She is a widow and lives with her aunt by marriage and her husband's neice. (It did urk me that half way through she started to refer to Winifred as her daughter. A mistake or just showing how much she liked the child?) Amelia is also the agony aunt of a paper and at the start of each chapter there is a letter. She also likes Simon but not much is progressing with his romance. I wondered if I'm really the author's market as it seemed a good book for teenager.
We eventually find out who the theif and the murderer is but there's no messy hanging or transportation to upset the reader. Amelia seems a bit sexually frustrated but I doubt I'll continue with it....

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own

Thank you NetGalley, Severn House, and Mary Winters for a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review! This is a Regency romance that follows Amelia Amesbury, a secret advice columnist, and is a murder mystery novel. The cover is absolutely stunning and was the original reason that I requested to read it. It’s the third book in the series, but can be read as a standalone. I really enjoyed this one and found it to be really unique while also reminding me a bit of some of my favorite books. I enjoyed the characters and the plot twists and turns that the book has. The building romance was also really fun. I recommend this one if you’re a fan of historical fiction!

This cozy-mystery novel follows Amelia Amesbury in a new adventure of the The Lady of Letters series. Amelia is an advice columinst who often stumbles upon something suspicious and can't stop investigating until she is able to uncover the truth. I have read the first novel of the series and I remember enjoying it a lot so I was really looking forward to this! Murder in Season was entertaining and it kept me wondering what had happened until I reached the last chapter. I really love Mary Winters's writing, it makes the plot easy to follow and it gets me invested in the whole story. I enjoyed seeing different sides of Amelia and Simon in this novel and I thought Madge's plot-line was quite interesting. I'm looking forward to the next installments of this series (if there are any), I will for sure continue reading as I am attached to Amelia's character and I loved all the side-characters (Kitty, Simon, etc). Murder in Season did not disappoint!

Book Three in the histfic A Lady of Letters mystery series, set in the mid-1800s in England, is a fine addition, and can be enjoyed, too, as a standalone. Highly recommended for histfic fans who love mysteries they can't solve with historical details and beautiful prose that bring the era fully alive. Loved it!

I very much enjoyed this book! I haven’t read the first two in the series but found it easy to pick up and follow along with the cast of characters.

I loved the regency setting - it gave me very cosy vibes and reminded me of Bridgerton.

The plot moved at the perfect pace for me. The mystery kept me interested and I actually didn’t guess the culprit which was a pleasant surprise.

I really loved the strong cast of female characters, especially the straight-talking Lady Tabitha and Amelia’s sister Madge (who felt a bit chaotic but in the best way!).

I was also here for the glimpses of romance between Amelia and Simon - I lapped up their witty banter and some of Simon’s lines had me swooning!

This is a fun, easy read - perfect for curling up by the fire. Thank you to NetGalley and the author for providing me with this arc in exchange for an honest review.

This is a cute historical cozy with wonderful well fleshed out characters. When a soon to he Baron is murdered and Amelia's headstrong younger sister Madge becomes the prime suspect, Amelia investigates to find the real murderer. There are lots of suspects, some plot twists, some new and interesting characters and a little romance. I did not figure out who the murderer was until it was finally revealed.

Mary Winters' intriguing "A Lady of Letters Mystery" book Murder in Season is a great addition to the series. The sister of the countess who became a hidden advice columnist, Amelia Amesbury, has a difficult season ahead of her because of a poisoning incident that overshadows Margaret's London debut. In order to vindicate her sister's name, Amelia needs to solve the mystery surrounding Margaret's alleged murder and the location of the fugitive jewellery thief.

The book has several issues, while providing a lovely fusion of Regency romance and historical intrigue. The mystery may seem complicated because of the large cast of individuals and the belated appearance of important hints. Still, Amelia's character shines, and the plot comes together well in the end. It could nevertheless be entertaining to fans of historical cosy novels with a hint of romance.

Bridgerton drama meets murder mystery!

Upon Lady Amelia Amesbury’s sister unexpectedly arriving in town to be presented in this year’s season, Lady Amelia is met with not just a murder occurring in her own ballroom but a jewellery thief on top of it! Lady Amelia must work quickly to solve the murder and clear her sister’s name.

Murder in Season is the third instalment in Mary Winters’ ‘A Lady of Letters’ series set in upper class 1840s London following Lady Amelia investigating the case.

Having not read the first two books I felt Winters did a good job of providing the character’s back stories and then moving on with the plot.

A witty historical mystery with a touch of romance, I found Murder in Season an easy read with enough twists to keep me interested.

Thank you to Net Galley and the publisher for providing me with this ARC. All views are my own.

I jumped at the opportunity to read this book early because I have been anxiously awaiting it since finishing book 2! This book is such an exciting addition to the series and kept me guessing until the very end on who the murderer would be. I absolutely love Amelia’s sister and hope to see more of her in future books. I highly recommend this series!

3.75 out of 5 stars!

Historical murder mystery with pretty covers are my weakness.

Here we are on book 3 of the 'A Lady of Letters Mystery' series, as we follow yet again our main character Amelia Amesbury who is countess by day and a secret advice columnist by night. In this instalment she gets a visit from her mother and younger sister Margaret, and they're both, especially her younger sister is in dire need for her help.

I wish I could have found out about this series much sooner. There's mystery, adventure, high societies, romance that will make your heart flutter and swoon, family chaos and much more.

Murder in Season ended beautifully with no plot holes left. But of course I wouldn't mind at all if we get more books in this series, I've already grown attached to all of the characters.

P.S. I have to pick up the previous books much sooner. This is a perfect cozy-mystery series with a hint of a swoon worthy romance.

A good edition to this developing series. Amelia shines as she navigates her troublesome sister, a death at her first ball, and a series of jewelry thefts. I do wish clues to determine the killer had been laid earlier, as there were a lot of characters introduced in this one. I’m just as interested in how Amelia navigates love interest Simon. Amelia and I have both been impatient with him, but things look promising for book 4, which I’m already eager for.

Murder in season is the third book in the Lady of letters mystery series.

Amelia's quiet season is disrupted when her sister Madge arrives at her door.

Murder and mayhem soon follow, leaving Amelia and Simon to try and find the culprit of 2 crimes: a murder and a string of robberies.

With her trademark wit, Amelia investigates and looks for clues founding help also in unexpected places.

Well rounded characters, a compelling story and traces of romance make this book a really enjoyable reading.

I am so curious about what will happen to Madge and Captain Fitz, can't wait for their next adventure!

I received an advance copy for free and I am leaving this review voluntarily, thanks to the author for it.

Murder in Season is the third in the Lady of Letters historical mystery series where a widowed countess is also an Agony Aunt newspaper columnist. I have enjoyed this series and this entry was no different. In fact, I think it was my favorite so far. Amelia has really come into her own as a strong, independent woman who might also want a little romance. I love how Amelia has taken what could be a very tough situation in life and has flourished as she has found herself and formed her own little family. Aunt Tabitha is a fantastic character in this series also and I would hate to be the person who gets on her bad side! The addition of her sister was lots of fun and the mystery itself really kept me guessing until the very end. I’m hoping the series will continue with more of Amelia and her friends and family. There are so many interesting situations that could come up in her life that the possibilities are endless.

Thank you NetGalley for the opportunity to review this book and offer my fair and honest opinion.

The third book in this Regency-set series sees Amelia dealing with more family drama, this time in the shape of a sister who gets into trouble when coming to London to escape some trouble at home. Amelia again has to step in to save the family name and protect loved ones when murder and theft ensue. As if that’s not enough she has complications of her own in the form of her relationship with Simon, her former husband’s best friend. This is a quick, enjoyable read. The mysteries are engaging and the personal relationships keep the story moving along at a good pace. It’s not clear if another book in the series will follow, but even if not, things are wrapped up nicely at the end. The Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for an advance copy. All views are entirely my own.

Amelia gets a surprise visit from her mother and her sister Madge. Her mother has brought Madge to London so that she can have a season looking for eligible men. At her debut into society Radcliffe is murdered after a fight with Madge. Although claiming her innocence the police are looking to find evidence against her. Amelia and Simon work together to find the real guilty party.
