Another exciting adventure featuring Lady Grace.,
This review is from: Betrayal (Lady Grace Mysteries) (Hardcover)
When Lady Sarah, a fellow Maid of Honor to Queen Elizabeth I, disappears, apparently having eloped with the dashing young Captain Drake, thirteen-year-old Lady Grace Cavendish takes it upon herself to discover the truth of Lady Sarah's whereabouts. Her discoveries lead her to believe that rather than leaving of her own free will, Lady Sarah may have been kidnapped. Grace decides to disguise herself as a boy, and along with her friend Masou, a tumbler at the court, stows away aboard Captain Drake's ship in the hope of rescuing her, and finds herself facing a dangerous adventure. I highly recommend this book to readers who enjoyed the first Lady Grace Mystery, as well as to new readers who enjoy reading a blend of historical fiction and mystery. I look forward to reading more of Grace's adventures in upcoming books in this series.

Exciting start to a new series.,
This review is from: Assassin (Lady Grace Mysteries) (Hardcover)
Lady Grace Cavendish grew up at the court of Queen Elizabeth I. When her mother died after accidentally drinking poison meant for the queen, Elizabeth took the responsibility of securing Grace's future upon herself. Now thirteen years old in the spring of 1569, Grace is a Maid of Honor to the queen, and the time has come for her betrothal. Even though she will not have to marry for three more years, Grace still dreads being betrothed. Elizabeth plans a lavish ball where Grace may choose her future husband from among three suitors. Everything goes as planned, until the day after the ball -- when one of Grace's rejected suitors is found dead, and the man she has chosen for her betrothed is the prime suspect! Now Grace must get to the bottom of the mystery and find the real killer so that she may clear the name of her future husband. I highly recommend this series to readers who love a combination of historical fiction and mystery. I can't wait to read more of Grace's adventures.

This review is from: Assassin (Lady Grace Mysteries) (Hardcover)
I bought these books for my 11 year old daughter. They were an easy read but she loved them. She has read A-H. Are there more? We can't find them.
