Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Equal parts Sherlock Holmes and P.G. Wodehouse, Charles Finch's debut mystery A Beautiful Blue Death introduces a wonderfully appealing gentleman detective in Victorian London who investigates crime as a diversion from his life of leisure. Charles Lenox, Victorian gentleman and armchair explorer, likes nothing more than to relax in his private study with a cup of tea, a roaring fire and a good book. But when his lifelong friend Lady Jane asks for his help, Lenox cannot resist the chance to unravel a mystery. Prudence Smith, one of Jane's former servants, is dead of an apparent suicide. But Lenox suspects something far more sinister: murder, by a rare and deadly poison. The grand house where the girl worked is full of suspects, and though Prue had dabbled with the hearts of more than a few men, Lenox is baffled by the motive for the girl's death. When another body turns up during the London season's most fashionable ball, Lenox must untangle a web of loyalties and animosities. Was it jealousy that killed Prudence Smith? Or was it something else entirely? And can Lenox find the answer before the killer strikes again—this time, disturbingly close to home?

Even one that risks far more than her career. WHO IS ELLIE FOREMAN? If you’re just meeting me, hello. I’m Ellie Foreman and I produce documentary films and videos in Chicago. People tell me I’m too curious for my own good, because I sometimes investigate crimes and murders as well. The problem is that in each of the 6 thrillers, the suspense ramps up and puts me in life-threatening situations. Or, as has happened, my daughter’s or my father’s life is jeopardized. I cherish my family and promised them that in the future I would walk away from a case if anything remotely smelled dangerous. I tried. I really did. It didn't work. I can’t understand why they don’t believe me. "A masterful blend of history, politics, and suspense. Publishers Weekly It might be because of the 6 novels in this Box Set. When you read them, you’ll discover, along with me, secrets from the past that have affected the present. You’ll question suspects from Chicago to Eastern Europe and China, and travel from the plush corridors of the Greenbrier Resort to Chicago’s Lawndale, once ground zero for riots. In each story you’ll find nail-biting suspense along with my dry sense of humor… you'll stay up way too late, unable to rest until you too know who “did it.” "Complicated, Fascinating. Hellmann has a beautifully tuned ear... which makes many of her scenes seriously funny." Chicago Tribune I hope you’ll find, as I do, that my friends, like Susan and Fouad, are the balm every woman needs to keep her balance, both physical and mental. And I hope you’ll share the unconditional love I feel for my daughter and my father. My ex-husband? Not so much. When you’ve finished the Box Set, let me know. We can go out to lunch and… talk. I won’t try to talk you into anything dangerous. Really. I promise. Enjoy the 6 Ellie Foreman Mysteries from Award-winning author of Compulsively Readable Thrillers, Libby Fischer Hellmann. Titles include: An Eye For Murder A Picture of Guilt An Image of Death A Shot To Die For Jump Cut Virtually Undetectable
