Though I've grown very familiar with Capt. Lacey's character and like him just as he is, I also like that he still discovers or realizes something new about himself as events unfold. The character isn't stale, like some become in other series. I am looking forward to the next installment of a Lacey mystery adventure.

After I read my first Ashley Gardner book I was hooked. I just finished Murder in St Giles, which was so good. I love following Captain Lacey and his adventures. I have read all Captain Lacey books and am already looking forward to the Captains next adventure.

I didn't see the end coming, and I like that in a mystery. Great writing!

Another excellent murder mystery adventure in the Captain Lacey series.
I love these books. My only wish is that the author would write more than 1 a year! ?

Captain Lacey and his friends solve another murder, this one of Brewster's brother-in-law. Pugilism, and life on a prison hulk in regency England are the background themes.

I've received an eARC at no cost for the author.
Murder at St. Giles was my first Captain Lacey’s book – and I can’t wait to read the other books!
Although I do like mysteries, I usually end up a bit disappointed because I can tell right away who did what (in this case, who killed Finch). But with this book, I kept thinking “who did it? Who did it?” because I just couldn’t tell. I really enjoyed discovering the killer along with Gabriel Lacey and Brewster.
The one tiny thing I would have liked a bit more is movement. Sometimes it was a bit slow, how the story was developing, and at the end it was maybe a bit too quick. But it was very satisfying, I didn’t feel like things were left to chance, everything was very well planned, since the order of meeting the suspects, to the suspects themselves.
The subplot was also good, although I have to say I didn’t connect with Donata and her son Peter that much, but that might have to do with only meeting them now, and not in a previous book. The most important part of this subplot, for me, was showing Captain Lacey in a different light, more of a husband and father (same thing with his daughters, Anne and Gabriella), which I could appreciate.
In the end, it was a great historical mystery book, it kept me guessing and wondering and I liked most of the characters, which meant I was truly engaged with what happened to each of them. I will, definitely, return to this series and read more about Captain Lacey.
