Three stars for the second book in the Jane Wunderly series. Jane, an American widow, is traveling with her formidable Aunt Millie through England. They make a stop at Wedgefield Manor where Millie spends time with her secret daughter (all this was revealed in book one Murder At The Mena House-also a 3 star read). When the totally dishy Redvers turns up, can a murder be far behind? Jane steps up to help a flirty inspector solve this ‘country house mystery’. Lots of red herrings and twists kept me guessing. Jane learning to fly an airplane, in 1926!, was a fun sub plot as is Lillian’s obsession with golf. The plot is tight with very little fluff. Neubauer keeps the cast of characters trimmed down to a manageable number and they are all well rounded and have a part to play. I have book three on hold and book four is set to be released later this year.
