Publisher's summary

The sport of kings is the backdrop for a game of murder where one player loses more than the match. Can Cleo solve the case, or will the murderer win?

Summer has arrived along with a plethora of social events that keep Cleo and her cousins busy. Between balls, dinners, concerts and picnics, they attend the final match between two proud polo clubs. When the winning team’s captain is found murdered in the stables, everyone assumes the opposing team’s captain killed him. After all, he was found holding the murder weapon, and everyone knows they hated each other.

But Cleo isn’t convinced. She sets out to prove his innocence alongside Harry Armitage, who was employed to investigate the accused man’s family. With their cases overlapping, it makes sense to work together.

The more they get to know the victim, the more they realize the handsome athlete sported a dark side that few people saw. Those who did had a reason to kill him. Which suspect struck the victim with his own polo mallet? His wife, lover, friends or colleagues?

Or did the rivalry between two opposing captains spill over to their personal lives, and lead to murder?

Amazing series

After struggling to make it through the first book, I’m hooked on thanks s series and the lives of the characters that unfold across the mysteries. I can’t say this was my favorite mystery but it was good. The historical aspect makes for a different kind of sleuthing which is fun.

Enjoyable cozy mystery set in England

The Cleopatra Fox mysteries are fun and lighthearted. Cleo is likeable, if somewhat petty at times. If you want to explore London 100 years ago, with a murder mystery thrown in, try this series. Start with #1, Murder at the Mayfair Hotel. I started on #2 and was a bit confused at first. Expect a strong heroine with somewhat unconventional goals, who walks you through Edwardian London, without getting overly focused on the fussy, giddy social whirl of her peers.

Best one yet!

I love this series and this book in my opinion was one of the best so far! I really loved that Harry and Cleo’s relationship is finally moving forward in an exciting direction. Now to wait 6 more months for the next book…ahhh!!!

Harry & Cleopatras changing relationship.

Cleopatra’s confidence as a detective is growing. Yet her musings at times reveal not only her uncertainties as a female in a male pursuit but an underlying ambivalence.
