The Bear at Midnight (Orkneyinga Murders Book 4) by Lexie Conyngham – Review by Melissa Saxton

The Bear at Midnight (Orkneyinga Murders #4)The Bear at Midnight by Lexie Conyngham
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Jump right into political intrigue and well done historical mystery crime solving.

The leader of the hall of Buckquoy dies. There needs to be a replacement but there is no male heir. There is an illegitimate son, a nephew and a local all who could assume the role and an Earl has to decide.

The leaders wife, now a widow has a daughter who seems to have her favorite to take over, but when the daughter turns up murdered so many questions ensue. Who killed her, and why? is it to influence the selection of the leader? is the mother involved, is it completely unrelated?

this story is a great historical crime novel which will both let you learn of culture, political intrigue and hierarchy but also have you lost in this story desperate to find out what actually happened.

You won’t regret this read!
