Symptoms of Death Dr Alexandra Gladstone Book 1 edition by Paula Paul Mystery Thriller Suspense eBooks Reviews
I love this series!
Enjoyed the first entry to a new mystery series, featuring an observant female physician as the lead character. Looking forward to the remaining books in the series.
I was pleasantly surprised by this freebie. A light, cozy historical mystery first published in 2002, now re-issued as an ebook by the author. There isn't much in historical setup or background. In fact at times it felt I was reading an episode of Dr. Quinn, set in the English countryside instead of the American West and with a mix of aristocrats, servants and thugs instead of indians and pionieers. Sully, the mountain men is Nicholas, the barrister who teams up with female doctor Alexandra Gladstone to solve the murder of the Earl of Dunsford. There is a hint of a developing romance, but to see if I'm right about that I'll have to read book 2 in the series and I am tempted to do just that.
All in all a quick and easy read.
This was an excellent book.
We listened to the unabridged audio version, and it was very entertaining. The story flowed well, and we enjoyed listening to the young lady's voice as she vocalized the story-line.
Love this series. I have started another of the books in this series and it looks great also. These books are easy read and just the right length to take on a trip. Found it very interesting to learn more about how women were treated during this period.
A female doctor is a novelty for a historical mystery series, and Dr. Alexandra Gladstone doesn't disappoint the reader by being too anachronistic for the time frame.
The mystery is solid and would be classified as a cozy if set in contemporary times.
I quite enjoyed the book and look forward to reading more of the series.
Paula Paul's SYMPTOMS OF DEATH is a great read, start to finish. Ms. Paul weaves a story that is both exciting and interesting, taking the reader to a nineteenth century English seaside village in a storyline that will make Downton Abbey fans feel right at home. You'll fall in love the sleuth, Dr. Alexandra Gladstone, the village's doctor, who works diligently and against all odds to solve the murder -- just as she had to overcome so many odds to become a medical doctor in Victorian England.
You will not only enjoy the story, which is a true page turner, but you're going to appreciate the writing, too. Ms. Paul offers beautiful writing with a subtle, sophisticated humor that testify to her keen insight into the human condition. Her characters are timeless, coming alive in dialogue that invites you into their lives and the moment they inhabit in history.
I give this novel my highest recommendation. In fact, I enjoyed this book so much that I downloaded the next novel in this series (AN IMPROPER DEATH) even before I finish the first!
