Political Death: A Jemima Shore Mystery

Rating:
Summary: Fascinating look at murder in the past
Review: Lady Antonia displays her interest in history by focusing this book on a murder in the distant past. As always, Jemima Shore finds herself surrounded by a cast of fascinating, eccentric characters, almost any of whom could be a murderer. Fraser is remarkably good at creating vivid characters, and none perhaps so vivid as Jemima Shore herself. Fraser is a great mystery writer; if you are an Agatha Christie fan, check out Antonia Fraser; you're in for a treat!
