The brutal murder of a Baron in the provinces punctuates the bitter rivalry between two royal houses. While this kind of small-scale conflict isn't uncommon amongst the male-driven rural estates, the fact that one of the Lords is an Islander (Black) while the other is a Continental (White) adds a racial dimension which concerns the Queen and the Royal Congress of Ladies who represent these houses in the Capital City.
Intendant Jacob Guimard is dispatched to the countryside to investigate the Baron's murder. As an officer of the Judiciary, one of the few positions of power still available to men in the Sanctum, he is sworn to celibacy and well-versed in the forensic arts, literally. Basing all their criminal and martial training in the humanities, the Judiciary actually trains its officers to analyze crime scenes like paintings and to read people like books.
Even after Guimard's arrival the death toll continues to rise. Just as disturbingly, his young partner, Adjutant Eli Brook, begins a perilous fall into a forbidden romance with a young Lady-in-training. Matters spin out of control and Guimard is greatly troubled to learn that his assignment to the case may have been no accident. As he uncovers more and more disturbing details, he also learns what a vital role he himself plays in this recent turmoil and how little in this rural province is what it appears to be....

Black Violet (Audible Audio Edition) Jason Andrew Updike Sergei Burbank Books Reviews
The author of this book has really grasped the concept of "leave them wanting more". "Black and Violet" has characters that are so well developed that by the end of the book you feel like you have known the for years. I hope the author (Jason Andrew Updike) writes more stories to expand the universe he has created.
Excellent world building! I think I've found a new author to follow!
The book entices one at the start, but not far into the book, one realizes that the writing is not complex and the grammar is now and again shockingly back. How about using the verb "lie" correctly? Excluding the complications of "lay," we have a writer who says that someone "lied down." Other mistakes too vomitous to cite. The characters barely sustain their original strong characterizations. I was very disappointed after reading all the kvelling of the other readers.
What a great follow up to his first book. Such interesting characters full of life. Can't wait to read more.
