Synopsis

Murder at an Alice in Wonderland–themed event threatens to send Theodosia Browning through the looking glass in the latest entry in this New York Timesbestselling series.

During the Mad Hatter Masquerade, a fundraiser hosted by the Friends of the Opera on the grounds of the old Pendleton Grist Mill, Harlan Sadler, husband of Cricket Sadler, the chairwoman, is killed. He’s been hit in the head with a croquet mallet, and his body hung on the chains and paddles of the grist mill.
Nobody can figure out why since Harlan was much beloved by everyone. It’s only after Cricket and Delaine beg Theodosia to investigate that she realizes the killer might have mistaken Harlan for his crazy son, Duke. After all, Duke is a slum landlord and recently injured a woman in a boating accident.

INCLUDES DELICIOUS RECIPES AND TEA TIME TIPS!

I enjoy this series a lot, but I do think this one didn't have quite as much magic as I'm used to. Still enjoyable and always a fun setting! The mystery was only ok compared to the others.......more

I just LOVE Drayton! What a great character! I think Theodosia should dump Reiley and just go on adventures with Drayton. Just two best friends solving murders. Theo is such an independent person, I don't feel the connect with Reiley at all. There is absolutely no chemistry between them. This was a......more
