I was drawn to this book because I very much enjoy time slippage books such as Cloud Atlas by David Mitchell and Life After Life by Kate Atkinson.
The story starts off atmospheric and intriguing. There's immediately a mystery to be solved complete with a murder and a lost memory. But has there really been a murder? And is this really lost memory or something far more complex as the title alludes to. The writing is a bit clunky especially some of the descriptors and analogies but not awkward enough to stop reading.
It does remind me of an Agatha Christie mystery, especially a closed room mystery with each unusual character slowly introduced. There is also an element of magical realism.
