Having read the first book in the series a couple of months back, picking up the thread for this one was a cinch. The story continues to remind me of a less elegant version of "Upstairs, Downstairs" but was enjoyable nevertheless.It is always a treat to have an almost typo free book. The story was all right albeit a bit of a stretch in terms of motive. I found myself getting a tad irritated by the continued insertion of Communists into the plot line...a bit of an antiquated contrivance to my way of thinking and not adequately described  to make the reader feel any depth of concern.Not sure how long the author plans to continue the series, but it will be fun to see how the great "reveal" of Euphemia's social heritage plays out.
