An Impossible Impostor (A Veronica Speedwell Mystery)
Veronica Speedwell and Stoker are once again called to solve a mystery at the behest of Sir Hugh Montgomerie, this time as a personal favor. His goddaughter, Euphemia, has let Sir Hugh know that a man has shown up at their family estate claiming to be her brother Jonathan, who supposedly died six years earlier. Veronica and Jonathan were once traveling companions, so Montgomerie asks her to verify his identity. What Veronica and Stoker find when they reach the estate is An Impossible Impostor. Veronica will have to face her past and, once again, face jewel thieves and survive abductions. Excelsior!
This is another great addition to the series. After so many adventures, you would think it would be hard for Raybourn to surprise you, but she still manages to throw some twists in there and leave you wanting more at the end. If you enjoy mysteries being solved in Victorian England as much as I do, I highly recommend you read this series. While the author does explain things that have past significance well, I would suggest you start at the beginning to have a deeper enjoyment of all the characters and their wild adventures.
