This one is already on the 2020 list.
Not sure that's a historical mystery (looks like a sequel to Roma and Empire), but I'm going to be looking forward to that.
Flavia Alba #9 out on July 27, 2021: A Comedy of Terrors
First in a new series: A Peculiar Combination
I've only read book one and a novella, but I'm hooked on this series. I also loved the first in her other series, about the doctor's wife.

Also very entertaining, and true to time and place. I also am enjoying her Orkneyinga Murders series, set in very early times. The first one for that is
Tomb for an Eagle.
That sounds good, too! I have a lot of catching up to do. :)
Mrs. Jeffries Demands Justice was finally, officially released last week. It was pushed back from 2020.
For any Jim Stringer there is finally a new book, Powder Smoke. It was published in January but doesn't seem to be available in the US yet. I'm happy.
Out today, available on Kindle Unlimited if you have it: Foxe and the Path into Darkness by William Savage, #8 in this series set in Georgian times. Love Ashmole Foxe and his investigating!A new historical mystery, being published 22 April: The Secret Life of Miss Mary Bennet by Katherine Crowley. As you might be able to tell, the protag is one of the "middle" Bennet sisters (cue up Pride and Prejudice), who manages to stumble upon murderous goings-on.
For a limited time. Read a free copy of the sixth mystery in my best-selling and award-winning Portia of the Pacific series at NetGalley.Of course, reviews are appreciated!
