Sense and second-degree murder
(Book)

Sequel to: Pride and premeditation.

Eighteen-year-old aspiring chemist Elinor Dashwood and her younger sister Marianne, a budding detective, work together to solve the mystery of their father's murder.

When aspiring scientist Elinor Dashwood discovers her father slumped over the desk of his office study, she knows his death means dire straits for the Dashwood women. An outdated will entails his estate-- including Norland & Company, the private investigation firm where her younger sister Marianne worked as her father's partner and protégé-- to their half-brother and his haughty wife. Then a discovery points to their father's death being foul play-- and the killer might be family. If the Dashwood sisters can combine their talents and bring their father's murderer to justice, it may bring them all some comfort. -- adapted from jacket
