Well, I must admit that even though The Juliet Code had a bit of a slow start for me, boy, did it take off lickety-split when Grace and Frederick arrive at the house. The location of past murder, hidden identities, betrayal, and a possible lost treasure with its clues hidden in a series of paintings.
Once again author Pepper Basham blends humor with suspense, romance with danger, and historical fiction with mystery. She has done it with the previous Freddie & Grace Mysteries and she has proved her continued success with this 3rd book in the series.
I found the mystery to be quite interesting as I have long been a fan of the mystery from the past trope. It was fun trying to figure out who was really whom and exactly what they were up to. Some of my guesses were spot-on, some not so much.
The Juliet Code was an enjoyable read and a good addition to the Freddie & Grace Mystery series from Pepper Basham. After reading this 3rd book as well as book 2 I will be quite interested to see if the series is continued another book...
(I received a copy of this book from the publisher. All opinions are entirely my own.)

So Much Fun
The Juliet Code is the third book in Pepper Basham's delightful Freddie and Grace Mystery series. Fans of Jen Turano will also be fans of this book and series. Like Turano, Basham is able to add romance and humor into an exciting detective story involving quirky, lovable characters. They both build strong female characters who are supported by men during times in history when women were expected to stay within strict social boundaries. Most importantly they both develop plots that honor God and honor living a life that is pleasing to Him without sounding judgmental. The Juliet Code is the perfect example of all of these wonderful characteristics. I would highly encourage readers to read the series in order even though this book will work as a stand-alone read.
In case you are wanting just a little peek into The Juliet Code... We join Lord and Lady Astley on their honeymoon in Venice. While there, their friend, Detective Jack Miracle, pulls them into a case he is investigating concerning stolen paintings. An investigation that seems fairly safe as investigations go, quickly turns dangerous. Lord and Lady Astley must learn to trust God with their health and safety while doing what they feel Him calling them to. Readers may learn something about trusting in the goodness of God as they too join the investigation.
I am grateful to have received a complimentary copy of The Juliet Code from Barbour Publishing via NetGalley without obligation. All opinions expressed here are my own. I am hoping that there are more books coming in this series in the future.
