Praise for Murder at Morrington Hall
"McKenna's delightful debut and series launch introduces feisty American heiress and horse breeder Stella Kendrick and Viscount Lyndy Lyndhurst...Eccentric, humorous characters add to the intrigue of catching the murderer...Fans of historical cozies will be enchanted." --Publishers Weekly
"McKenna's series kickoff will warm the hearts of fans who cherish all things Edwardian." --KirkusReviews
"Well-drawn characters, a richly described historical setting with details of horses and horse racing, and a tentative romance distinguish this agreeable cozy." --Booklist
"Get ready for an entertaining combination of Pride and Prejudice, the game of Clue, and an Agatha Christie-type plot...What adds to the reader's enjoyment is the growing relationship between the intended bride and groom, who are both lovers of horses and horse riding. The denouement is both surprising and satisfying." --Mystery Scene Magazine
"Unexpected twists and turns and a clever ending...Hopefully, her next one will have just as much quirkiness and fun."
--Historical Novels Review
"With her unconventional, contrary ways, American heiress Stella lays siege to every notion of decorum held dear by her soon-to-be British in-laws, but she and their elegant son Lyndy find more in common than either thought possible. Together, Stella and Lyndy make a delicious pair. They'll win your hearts as they win each other's in this charming, clever mystery!" --Alyssa Maxwell, author of Murder at Crossways
"Murder at Morrington Hall proves to be a delightful read. While educating her readers about the social history of the era, Clara McKenna also provides us with a challenging mystery to solve." --Newport Plain Talk
"It will take more than an arranged marriage and a murder to thwart Stella Kendrick in this compelling mystery filled with twists and turns, intriguing characters, and rich historical detail. I fell in love with the clever and spirited Stella and her charming fiancé Lyndy as they navigate the perils posed by both romance and intrigue; I cannot wait to see what the future holds for them!"--Ashley Weaver, author of An Act of Villainy
"Witty from the start, Clara McKenna has crafted a clever mystery. A pair of wickedly winning sleuths--one horse-loving, headstrong American heiress and the handsome Viscount she's meant to marry--makes for fabulous fun." --Nancy Herriman, author of the Bess Ellyott mysteries
