This is the second novel in the Claire Gulliver Series and as the title suggests, its setting is Washington D.C. Clair is a San Francisco bookstore owner who specializes in travel books and who is invited to D.C. to attend a gala given in her honor. Once again, Claire is thrown into a situation fraught with danger. Mrs. Wigglesworth, herself a world traveler, fills her books with details and information that only an experienced traveler would discern. Her characters are richly developed and the plot is intricately woven. Unlike Dame Agatha, Mrs. Wigglesworth plays fair with the clues so at the end of the novel the reader experiences an “aha” moment.
A terrific read! I can’t wait for her next novel. Keep them coming!
