Former American starlet, Cora Clarke moves into a flat in Bloomsdale with her pet dog, Archibald. The problem is that it is already occupied by a corpse. Now it is up to her to figure out who is the murder before she becomes the next victim. This story is set in London just before WW II.
This the third book in the Sleuthing Starlets historical cozy mystery series. The characters were well crafted complete with strengths and foibles. The storyline was well done and flowed smoothly. The romance was more prominent in this story. The setting was a bit different as her apartment was is a much lower class area. I liked the fact she was more on her own and learned a lot about want she wants out of her life. The mystery was great, full of expected twists and turns, danger and suspense. I look forward to the next book the series.

Unexpected Adventure!
Cora again finds herself smack bang in the middle of a murder and of course she is compelled to solve it.
The story has a good plot and it reads well. It is a cozy mystery that is easy to read and I found it very enjoyable and am enjoying the series.
This time we meet up with her boyfriend (things are hotting up between them) and also her father who has a singing engagement in the same town.
The story has a surprise ending as Cora solves the murder.
This was a quick and easy read and I am happy to recommend it.
I read an Advance Reader Copy of this story and my review is unbiased and given voluntarily.
Cora Clarke is at it again with another mysterious death found in her new flat! Not the way she wanted to find a man and what in the world happened? It seems there is a murderer in Cora’s new building and she is determined to find the culprit!
With a cast of characters including Archibald, Cora’s bishon, who I absolutely loved, her quirky friend, Veronica, an actress, and her talended Pop who was a singer, the mystery begins. Cora had been a child star but had not done as well as she grew up. She hoped to find work in London where she had rented a new flat. As she and her friend entered it, there was a dead man on her bed! What the heck?
Bianca Blythe has transitioned to writing a delightul mystery series that has me truly enchanted! The dialogue and characters are so much fun and you never know what will be said or who will come into play in the story!
I truly enjoyed The Body in Bloomsbury and cannot wait for the next installment of A Sleuthing Starlet Mystery series!!
Former Hollywood starlet Cora Clarke is eager to move into a flat in Bloomsbury with her pet bichon Archibald. She arrives there with her best friend Veronica, unfortunately, when they enter her new flat, a man is already there lying dead on the bed
Another interesting, enjoyable murder mystery. It takes Cora from the Savoy to Harrods to a night club in Soho. Whilst I like Cora & Randolph most of the other characters are thoroughly obnoxious, however that’s the joy of a mystery set in London in the 1930’s the characters can be stereotyped, it works & makes for a tongue in the cheek read which I read in one sitting during an afternoon. If you like a traditional murder mystery from the early twentieth century then you’ll love this
My honest review is for a special copy I voluntarily read
