About this audiobook

1784 England. Officially hired as the librarian for the Duchess of Beaufort, Miss Tiffany Woodall is through with masquerades and murders for good. That is, she was until she stumbled upon the frozen dead body of former footman Mr. Bernard Coram. The speed with which her peaceful new life is upended is one for the record books: the justice of the peace immediately declares her the primary suspect in the murder. As Tiffany hunts for the truth to clear her name, she learns that Bernard got into a fight over a woman at the local pub the night of his death—but he was also overheard blackmailing Samir. The justice of the peace arrests Samir, and Tiffany realizes that her life may have more in common with a tragic play than a light-hearted romance. With her love locked up in jail and her own reputation on the line, Tiffany must attempt to solve the murder before the book closes on her or Samir’s life.

Ratings and reviews

I absolutely loved Once Upon a Murder! It’s a fabulous historical mystery with such endearing characters. I thoroughly enjoyed A Novel Disguise & this second book in the Lady Librarian Mystery series is even better if possible. Miss Tiffany Woodall’s a 40 year old spinster who’s also the librarian for the Duchess of Beaufort. She’s intelligent, humorous, & has the brilliant ability to solve mysteries. All her talents are needed to free the man she loves accused of murder. Highly recommend!
