Beaton writing as Marion Chesney."Review"If you missed the first novel in this series, get it right away. * Snobbery with Violence introduced the Edwardian heroine Lady Rose Summer.

C. Beaton, the Agatha Raisin and Hamish Macbeth mysteries) maintains her charm and sassiness while indicting evergreen pomposity and class-status stupidity."--Kirkus on Snobbery with Violence "Combines history, romance, and intrigue resulting in a delightful romantic mystery."--Midwest Book Review on Snobbery with Violence* From the Back CoverA DEADLY FIRST SEASONLady Rose Summer couldn't be more delighted to assist Society's most beautiful new debutante Miss Dolly Tremaine in negotiating her very first Season.

And the country-bred Dolly was totally at sea--and needed all the help Rose could give. But when Rose rushes to prevent Dolly from making a disastrous mistake, she discovers her stabbed to death and floating in a boat on the Serpentine River. And it isn't long before Rose barely survives an attempt on her own life.
