The scene is a picturesque country town in South Australia.
The action starts with a death that might be murder.
The time is that of horses and carriages and gas lamps, when the telephone was still a novelty, forensic science was in its infancy and long before DNA testing.
The heroine is a young woman who doesn’t quite fit the mould of 1909.
Delilah Brown is the stylish daughter of a police detective who is gifted with plenty of grey cells of her own. When her father comes to a stalemate in a possible murder case, Delilah convinces him to let her take over and travels to Riverton in the guise of a butterfly enthusiast. There she charms her way into the confidences of the local populace (not to mention the heart of one of the main murder suspects). Her investigations reveal a number of challenging personalities and a few vital clues, but there are more murders and danger for the plucky heroine before the case is solved.
This is a detective novel written in the style of the Golden Age, with several red herrings, larger than life characters, a dose of social commentary and a tongue quite decidedly in cheek.

Delilah Brown is a fabulous character written with such clarity and it shows from the very first paragraph. From the opening page, we get to know who our stylish and brave heroine is and we jump straight in to the plot. This is a wonderful murder mystery which surprised me constantly. The setting and timing of the novel (early 20th century Australia) is refreshing and the characters each have their own strong character traits (not to mention alibis, as everyone is a suspect!). T S Lavers' skilfully manages to inject some romantic chemistry between Delilah and one of the main suspects without ruining Delilah's purpose. I loved this novel and looked up straight away if this was part of a series. It should be! I would love to read more from this author and more on Delilah Brown.Product details

Interesting plot; characters come to life.
What a fantastic mystery. I was hooked from the beginner and couldn't put it down.
The book has a well developed plot and characters and it is very well written.
I loved this book so much that I read it all in one sitting!
This is a cleverly written and captivating detective novel. I thoroughly enjoyed reading about Delilah Brown who is a feisty and intelligent young lady living in the early 20th century. I was engrossed in the mystery at Riverton from the first page to the last and dearly hope that Delilah has more mysteries to solve.
