by Georgette Heyer (read by Phyllida Nash ) c. 1936
an annual re-read
Jealousy runs in the family
Wrongly accused and on the run, heir to the title Ludovic Lavenham must find the signet ring that will prove his innocence -- and fall in love with the ingenue along the way.
I love when Heyer combines a mystery to be solved with a budding romance, or two. This one has all the hallmarks of a GH romance -- melodrama, quirky secondary characters, laugh out loud dialogue -- with enough twists and turns in the mystery to entertain a broad audience of readers.
