My review:🌟🌟🌟🌟
The Red Monarch by Bella Ellis (Brontë Sisters Mystery 3) follows the sisters as they go to London to help one of Anne’s former pupils – Lydia Robinson, who is also the daughter of the woman that Branwell is in love with. Branwell sees this as a way to get her love back, and the sisters see it as their duty to help.
Lydia’s husband has been taken away as he’s lost something that the gang he was working for needs. Lydia is heavily pregnant, doesn’t know anyone in London, and has a week to find whatever it is in order to get her husband back. The siblings have their work cut out for them!
This was an enjoyable murder mystery, and seeing the sisters in London was interesting after the previous two books being set in country houses. I’m looking forward to the next book!
The Red Monarch was published on 18th November 2021, and is available on Amazon, Waterstones and Bookshop.org.
