I loved this Victorian romance mystery.

Amelie writes a local romance advice column for her Aunt's newspaper. She decides to spy on one of her advice receivers on a date and is surprised to see Mr. Radcliffe, a man she may fancy. She is caught by a local Detective, Michael.

Michael is sure that the man, Mr. Radcliffe actually killed his wife that "drowned in the Thames". As the investigation goes on, Mr. Radcliffe is fine to have more secrets he's hiding. Amelie and Michael start to become friends and become really fond of one another. The blue they became closer, the more dangerous Mr. Radcliffe becomes.

Amelie is one stubborn woman (as she puts herself into the investigation) but she knows herself and she makes up her mind and just does what she feels. Though a little reckless, she is very smart.

Michael is a great detective and really smart too. He's very protective of Amelie and others.

Smartly written and very vivid in the setting.
