In the Balance by Patricia Wentworth Book Summary

The “marvelous” British governess-turned-sleuth helps a new bride who fears her husband intends to murder her (Daily Mail).

Former schoolteacher Miss Maud Silver is on her way back to London when, with a violent shudder of the train, a young woman is thrust into her compartment. She’s beautiful, well dressed, newly married, and wealthy—a lethal combination.

In a state of shock, Lisle Jerningham explains that she fled her home in a hurry after overhearing a sinister conversation. Her new husband’s first wife died in an apparent accident, and the resultant infusion of cash saved his family home. Now, he’s broke again—and attempting to engineer a second convenient mishap. Miss Silver is unsure whether the drama is real or a figment of Lisle’s imagination—but if this frightened young lady is a target for murder, the killer will have to deal with the governess-turned-sleuth first.

 Starring a mature sleuth who “has her place in detective fiction as surely as Lord Peter Wimsey or Hercule Poirot”, In the Balance is a classic British mystery (Manchester Evening News).

If you have no brain read this book. There are a few redeeming points to this book, but very few. In order to keep the mystery going, there are so many times I would ask myself, did this woman know no other soul prior to her marriage. Not one person she could confide in, no history to provide why she was a complete and utterly spineless, stupid idiot when she knew her husband didn’t care one whit about her. I could go on for paragraphs complaining about this book, but I it’s the first one I read from this author and I will not be reading any more.

Couldn’t put it down!. Another great Miss Silver read!
