Publisher's summary

For fans of Deanna Raybourn, Tasha Alexander, and Andrea Penrose...

Step into 1897 Victorian London: Unravel Love and Intrigue with The Tabitha & Wolf Historical Mystery Series, where Mystery meets Romance with a splash of Humour.

Tabitha was used to being a social pariah. Could her standing in society get any worse?

Tabitha, Lady Chesterton, the Countess of Pembroke, is newly widowed at only 22 years of age. With no son to inherit the title, it falls to a dashing, distant cousin of her husband's, Jeremy Chesterton, known as Wolf. It quickly becomes apparent that Wolf had consorted with some of London's most dangerous citizens before inheriting the title. Can he leave this world behind, or will shadowy figures from his past follow him into his new aristocratic life in Mayfair? And can Tabitha avoid being caught up in Wolf's dubious activities?

It seems it's well and truly time for Tabitha to leave her gilded cage behind for good!

VERY good read (listen)!!

This is Book 1 of a series that starts out much the same as others set in London in times that include the ton, dukes, ladies, "polite society" and all that goes with that era. BUT....the It involves a "not so polite" side of London society in the 1800s which is dark and ever so slightly dangerous. Lots of intrigue, twists and mystery with a slight bit of romance (but don't expect sexy scenes). All that and a happy ending, too!

It always amazes me when authors have all these amazing stories to tell and do it in such a way as to keep you fully involved and anxiously awaiting the next chapter! Great start to what looks to be a great series! Great job, Sarah Noel and Vicki-Jo Eva.

Very good narration but with a little room for improvement where male voices are concerned.

A Wonderful Origin Story

I loved the delicious blending of modern themes on a days of yore story. There was suspense, romance and culture in the right amount to make me think of television series or Movies.

The narrator did a wonderful job giving it the feeling of a bedtime story. I like how the author delved in to the characters backgrounds and stories to make the interesting and come to life.

This was fun and even bought a few tears to my eyes. I was intrigued to discover who the murderer and villains were.

Excellent!!!

I loved Tabitha. She's a strong woman with integrity and morales. It was a beautiful thing to see Tabitha come alive after Wolf, Bear, and others joined the crew/family. She was a powerful force for change and righting wrongs in silence. Inspirational and ingenious!!! I liked that the dowagger became a reluctant helper in the justice area with her ex DIL and the new Earl. This was an amazing story with depth that I quickly became invested in. I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest opinion. The narrator did a great job bringing the characters and story to life. I highly recommend this book.

Murder Mystery

An excellent historical mystery set in Victorian era of the scandals of the upper class and the abuse of the poor and underprivileged. Tabitha is a widow who gets enraptured in solving a mystery with the present Earl of the house. The subject matter is heinous. The narrator did an excellent job.

Good Book First in series

This author is new to me.
I very much enjoyed this new first in series mystery.
This story take place in the late 19th century. The characters are well developed and the story line is out of the usual historical romance/history. The focus is on the mystery.
Tabitha is a very strong heroine and she can match Wolf in every way.
If you enjoy in depth mysteries you will enjoy this one. I was captivated until the very end!

There are triggers. Particularly about children.

This book was an ARC and this is my honest review.

A New Fan

This story hooked me with the first chapter and never let go. I was captured from the excellent storyline to the perfect narration, and searched Amazon for more of this author's books. Time well spent.

Rewarding Mystery, Eye Opening Trip Into the Past

This novel has a special warmth of heart I really loved, and yet it deals with some of society's darkest activities. The mix of endearing characters from Victorian London's various social classes combine with a surprising storyline that keeps you guessing. I can't wait to read more from this author.

Absolutely wonderful!

A Proud Woman is the first in the Tabitha and Wolf Mysteries by Sarah F. Noel. Set in Victorian London, newly widowed Lady Chesterton, the Countess of Pembroke, is awaiting her husband’s cousin Jeremy Chesterton, (nicknamed Wolf), to take his place as the new Lord Pembroke. Rather than resuming her quiet life, Tabitha gets involved in Wolf’s investigation of theft, murder and other unspeakable crimes. I enjoyed the story and the characters. The title characters are likable individuals with progressive views. The writing is good and the story ends with the promise of another mystery in Book 2. The narration by Vicki-Jo Eva is excellent. Her performance brings all the characters and story to life. I received a free audiobook code for my honest review. Can’t wait to read the next book!
