BOOK REPORT....

The Bachelor Girl's Guide to Murder - Rachel McMillan

















Product Description(Amazon.com)
In 1910 Toronto, while other bachelor girls perfect their domestic skills and find husbands, two friends perfect their sleuthing skills and find a murderer.
Inspired by their fascination with all things Sherlock Holmes, best friends and flatmates Merinda and Jem launch a consulting detective business. The deaths of young Irish women lead Merinda and Jem deeper into the mire of the city's underbelly, where the high hopes of those dreaming to make a new life in Canada are met with prejudice and squalor.
While searching for answers, donning disguises, and sneaking around where no proper ladies would ever go, they pair with Jasper Forth, a police constable, and Ray DeLuca, a reporter in whom Jem takes a more than professional interest. Merinda could well be Toronto's premiere consulting detective, and Jem may just find a way to put her bachelor girlhood behind her forever—if they can stay alive long enough to do so.

MY THOUGHTS: This is a new author and series for me.  Books that take me on a historical journey are one of my favorites, along with a good murder mystery.  This book has both of them.  And along the way Romance works into the story line.  Merinda and Jem are consulting detective's and they have hung their sign out for business.  First and foremost, they have a murder to solve.  The girls have all kinds of help along the way.  Jasper, a police constable, Ray, a reporter and Tina and Mouse.  They all work into the story of the Bachelor Girl's.  I give this book 5.....
