Verdict
Mesmerizing! The Devlin Diary goes down as one of my all-time favorites! I loved this book.... LOVED IT! Claire and Andrew are history fellows at Trinity, Cambridge and are trying to solve a murder in the current time period. Hannah and Edward are both doctors trying to solve several murders during the 1670's near Whitehall. Mystery, romance, high level vocabulary, history, royalty.... It's got it all! Christi Phillips ability to perfects the details of the time period is astounding. You will lose yourself in this book! Terrific purchase.
Good Reading,
Sarah :)
