Grave Expectations is a excellent historical mystery. Great writing and well developed characters. This is the second in the series.

Grave Expectations by Heather Redmond is the second installment in the A Dickens of a Crime series.

This is a fantastic Victorian era murder/mystery involving the a fictionalization of the real life Charles Dickens.
I love the detail and the intricacies of the character niches that were developed in this novel. I love the interplay and the chemistry that the characters evoked. The author has a talent in creating rich, multi-layered characters with quick wit and banter.

The author did a fabulous job creating a nail-biting, thought-provoking, intricate plot involving the murder/mystery that kept me engaged throughout.

If you love historical fiction, murder/mysteries, or just a good old mystery, then this book is for you.

I look forward to future installments.

5/5 stars
