Manners and Monsters by Tilly Wallace
4.0
Cute, fun, regency with an intriguing zombie twist. A dark mage spell has turned several women of the ton into the undead. When one of these undead murders a servant during her friend's engagement party, Hanna must solve the crime. Luckily the daughter of a mage and a mad scientist has the perfect skills to uncover the criminal. Unfortunately for her, she's paired with a detective, a surly society outcast with his own secret.
The worldbuilding was my favorite part. London with mage and aftermages (descendents of mage with magical gifts) was well fleshed out, as was the explanation of how supernatural creatures came to be accepted (or not) as part of society.
All in all an enjoyable read that had me grabbing the next book in the series.
