Welcome to my stop on The Golden Hour by Malia Zaidi blog tour hosted by Historical Fiction Virtual Book Tours! I have a feature and giveaway for you so make sure to read all the way to the bottom to check it out. Malia is a bibliophile and fellow book blogger, so I’m thrilled to be featuring her today!
The Golden Hour by Malia Zaidi
Lady Evelyn Carlisle has barely arrived in London when familial duty calls her away again. Her cousin Gemma is desperate for help with her ailing mother before her imminent wedding, which Evelyn knew nothing about! Aunt Agnes in tow, she journeys to Scotland, expecting to find Malmo Manor in turmoil. To her surprise, her Scottish family has been keeping far more secrets than the troubled state of their matriarch. Adding to the tension in the house a neighbor has opened his home, Elderbrooke Park, as a retreat for artistic veterans of the Great War. This development does not sit well with everyone in the community. Is the suspicion towards the residents a catalyst for murder? A tragedy at Elderbrooke Park’s May Day celebration awakens Evelyn’s sleuthing instinct, which is strengthened when the story of another unsolved death emerges, connected to her own family. What she uncovers on her quest to expose the truth will change several lives forever, including her own. With the shadow of history looming over her, Evelyn must trust in her instinct and ability to comb through the past to understand the present, before the murderer can stop her and tragedy strikes again.

I was spotlighting this blog tour as well – I can’t wait to when I can start reading this series! I’ve been trying to keep myself above water lately – had a wreck of a migraine which dragged me down quite a bit this May; wherein I had to push forward a lot of my #WyrdAndWonder plans inasmuch as my #HistoricalMondays showcases and every other post I wanted to write in order to share with everyone.. feels like I was in this lost vacuum of space!
Meant to drop by sooner — saw you were also on The Time Collector blog tour? I’m making amends for having to reschedule my interview & review on the morrow — I’ll swing back to read your thoughts on that one after I do!
Meanwhile – just wanted to say if the book is a series of Cosy Historical Mysteries odds are in good favour I’m going to LOVE them!!! Ha! Happy readings!!
