À propos de cet audio

Death pays a visit to Sarah Kelling's Boston boardinghouse in this cozy mystery from the best-selling author of the Peter Shandy series.

Though the inheritance from her dearly departed Alexander was meant to set Sarah Kelling up for life, it vanishes quickly in the face of hounding from charitable organizations and the IRS. Facing the loss of her stately Back Bay brownstone, Sarah opens her home to lodgers - deciding she prefers a boardinghouse to the poorhouse. Soon she is cooking meals and serving tea for a cast of quirky residents, a cozy little family that would be quite happy were it not for the unpleasant presence of a certain Barnwell Augustus Quiffen - a man so rude that no one really minds when he is squashed beneath a subway car. Sarah replaces her lost boarder quickly, and the family dynamic is restored. But when another lodger dies suddenly, the boardinghouse appears to be cursed.

Now it will take more than a glass of sherry to soothe Sarah's panicked residents, and she must turn to detective Max Bittersohn for help before her boarders bolt.

Believable if you’ve read the 1st book

Before reading “The Withdrawing Room”, you REALLY should read “The Family Vault”, which is the 1st title in this series.

Once you’ve done that, and know the way in which the main character (of both books) was raised, and how she is treated during her marriage, this 2nd book will be completely believable. While by 1980 there weren’t a LOT of young women in similar circumstances, but there were a lot more than you’d think/expect. And, in many Western European nations, for CENTURIES they treated “upper class” women similar to how this main character was and is, and much more extremely. (Trying to not give spoilers other than one that you’ll discover within a minute of the beginning of “The Family Vault”.

“The Family Vault” is good, and “The Drawing Room” is even better. Also, YES, there ARE and HAVE BEEN persons like the supporting characters depicted in both novels.
