I have to say I love the absurdity of Anya's books and this one does not disappoint. Rudhall Manor is filled with quirky characters. Lucy in particular is not your average Victorian orphan as she is not deterred by the suspicion cast upon her when the Lord of the Manor is murdered and jewels go missing. Lucy continues to work to clear her name even when she has not a single supporter left in the house. I enjoyed the descriptions of the Manor and its animals immensely. I read this book in a very short time as it was hard to put down.
