This is a delightful series. I am getting more and more connected with Caroline and how her mind works.  Despite everything she has been through, she is more honorable than most of the other characters in the book and caring of others. Though it's frustrating, I love the way she treats her younger sister, allowing her to make her own (bad bad bad) decisions.  Also I love how this mystery centered around a possible new will from her father and the different consequences. As usual her partnership with Mrs. Frogerton was so enjoyable; I love their relationship and banter (and do I forsee a romance with her son?) I was shocked by how everything shook out and how cool, calm, and collected the smart Caroline can be in the face of danger.

Note: I have listened to this entire series on audiobook and I highly recommend that format!

Thanks to the publisher for a free ARC; my review and my thoughts are my own.
