Book Reviews of AN Experiment In Treason
Book Review: Another enjoyable entry in series
Summary: 5 Stars
#9 Sir John Fielding mystery in which Jeremy and Sir John become involved in a plot involving Benjamin Franklin and the American colonies. Someone has stolen a packet of letters from the home of a prominent member of Parliament, believed to be damning to certain British officials with regard to the rights of the Colonials. A footman was brutally coshed on the head and killed during the burglary, therefore it's a murder case as well. Mr. Franklin is high on the suspect list as having hired certain thugs to perform the deed, but without proof, Sir John and Jeremy are stuck at a standstill.
Several changes are in the works with regards to secondary characters as well, as the Fieldings' former cook, Annie, stars in a production of Romeo and Juliet, Molly (the new cook) settles in and is courted by Dr. Donnelly (the medical examiner) and Jeremy and Clarissa's relationship begins to change. Enjoyable entry in the series as always; the author's notes indicate that he played fast and loose with known historical fact in this book with regard to Ben Franklin's involvement, but I thought he did it very well. It *is* historical fiction after all!
