In this "sequel" to Jane Austen's "Northanger Abbey," now-married Catherine and Henry Tilney return to Bath for a holiday and find themselves again in the middle of an awkward romance, this time between General Tilney and a titled, obnoxious widow.I picked up this book free during an Amazon giveaway. For some reason, otherwise sensible authors feel compelled to add on to Austen's stories. This isn't nearly as bad as most of them; Sullivan mimics Austen's style well and keeps her story in line with their characters. But it lacks focus, and whatever it is, it is certainly not a mystery. The characters themselves are interesting enough that I finished the book, but the only reason I can see to read it at all is if you want to see Sullivan's take on what happened to Catherine and Henry after "Northanger Abbey" ended.

There Must Be Murder Margaret C Sullivan Cassandra Chouinard 9780615425870 Books Reviews
A perfect tonic for the mid-winter blahs, There Must Be Murder includes all of my favorite parts of Jane Austen's Northanger Abbey--namely, the wit and charm of Henry Tilney, the interesting and picturesque setting of Bath, the innocence of Catherine as she continues to learn life's lessons, and the joys of immersing oneself in a good novel.
The novel picks up the NA story three months after Henry and Catherine are married and the premise is that they return to Bath to celebrate the first anniversary of their meeting there. I am happy to report that the couple is blissfully satisfied with married life--Henry reads The Mysteries of Udolpho to Catherine, continues to make her laugh with his arch commentary, and is more than happy to let her adore him.
Despite the ominous title, the plot is gently satirical, soft-boiled, and entirely enjoyable. Catherine discovers a rival for Henry's affections, Catherine is pursued by a rake, General Tilney is courting a likely murderess (aka The Merry Widow), and Catherine and Henry are revealed to be potty about dogs and indifferent, if not hostile, to cats. Who knew?!
Finally, the illustrations by Cassandra Chouinard are absolutely charming.
A quick read, There Must Be Murder, is a treat for Janeites and a must for those of us who are consider themselves players on Team Tilney.
Although reviewed as Jane-esque, Jane is not boring or fails to accomplish the mystery or suspense. I'm glad this book was short. I could not have taken much more description about dogs walking, cats teasing, mundane gossip wonderings, and silly social trivia (such as what to say when the local Casanova hits on you and you are happily married). How boring.
there is nothing as good as the original.however,this books stands alone as a good read.ms. sullivan has taken familiar characters and created an interesting story.as a freebie, the price is right.
Very nice continuation of Henry and Catherine's story. In the style of Jane Austen, a pleasant afternoon read with lovely illustrations.
This book was purchased as a gift and I have never had any problems ordering anything from . This is my go
To store for everything.
This book drew me in right away and it was well written and even has cute illustrations. However, it seemed to end rather abruptly leaving loads of questions unanswered. As another reviewer said, there wasn't murder. If the author spiced it up a bit and worked on a more satisfying ending, this would be a five star book.
Based on the characters of Henry and Catherine from Jane Austen's Northanger Abbey. Henry and Catherine return once again to Bath where they first met just a year ago. In the midst of renewed acquaintances and family, Catherine hears some startling gossip. Has murder truly been committed? Or is Catherine's imagination, fired by her love of gothic novels, carrying her away once more? I enjoyed the story. Even though the mystery itself was mild, it was fun to have a follow-up on Austen's characters.
