Chameleon Book Review
Book Description
How much can you really know about someone?
Lady Victoria Grayson has always considered herself a keen observer of human behavior. After battling a chronic childhood illness that kept her homebound for years, she journeys to London determined to have the adventure of a lifetime.
Jaded by his wartime profession as a spy, Lord Witt understands, more than most, that everyone is not always who they pretend to be. He meets Victoria after the Regent requests an investigation into the activities of her physician brother, Lord Ravensmoore.
Witt and Victoria become increasingly entangled in a plot targeting the lords of Parliament. Victoria is forced to question how well she knows those close to her while challenging Witt’s cynical nature and doubts about God. Together they must confront their pasts in order to solve a mystery that could devastate their future.
My Thoughts
If you’re looking for a unique Christian fiction novel, then look no further than The Ravensmoore Chronicles series! Regency novels have been multiplying at a fast pace lately, but this is an older one that had a mystery included – a rare find. In addition to the mystery element, this author also used her knowledge of mental illness to explore the world of asylums which were notoriously known for how poorly they treated their patients.
The title of the book was interesting to me because it just seems different for Christian fiction. However, it was quickly obvious why this word was chosen as one character’s ability to hide in plain sight was expertly written. The “chameleon” of the story ended up being the last person I expected!
There is only one more book to complete this series, and it focuses on the last sibling – Mercy. I’m anxious to see if her desire to follow in her brother’s footsteps as a doctor becomes reality.
