Prelude for a Lord by Camille Elliott

Prelude for a Lord
By Camille Elliott
 
If you like Jane Austen books you will love this book.  The courtly manners and honorable ways of wooing will remind you of Austen characters.  The story is woven around a young woman who has a treasured violin.  The problem is that it is considered unseemly for women to play violins and there is a sinister character trying to steal this instrument.  The mystery surrounding the violin is not solved till the very end of the book and the author keeps you guessing at every turn. 
 
This book kept my attention but I felt that the plot could have moved a little faster.  This however, did not stop me from being intrigued by the charm of the heroine and her dilemma.
 
I received this book from the publishers and was not required to write a positive review.
