Diana Spaulding, intrepid journalist, and physician Ben Northcote, are on their way to Maine to be married when they stop in rural New York to meet a few of Diana's hitherto unknown relatives. Once they arrive, putting an end to the family feud between Diana's mother and her uncles is the least of their problems. Confidence games, schemes to attract tourists to the area, and murder conspire to complicate Diana's life in May of 1888.
The only problem with No Mortal Reason, Kathy Lynn Emerson's third installment in her Diana Spaulding mystery series, is that it's not set in Maine. . . . a joy to read. Judy Harrison, Bangor Daily News
Kathy Emerson provides just enough detail of life in 1888 to set the sense of place. Her character-driven mystery thrives on the relationships she develops. Sally Powers, I Love A Mystery
