I was completely drawn in by the first impression excerpt I previously read, so I was delighted when I won the raffle for a free physical copy from BookishFirst. I love the instant action of the story, pulling me into the mystery and creating a wonderful Agatha-Christie-esque atmosphere. I thought I’d catch on, but the plot twists and interesting characters kept me spinning.
It’s difficult to review the story because I don’t want to give away any clues, but will say that I’m not a mystery genre reader, but found this book mesmerizing. The excellent writing created a movie in my head. I’m glad I wasn’t disappointed in the present tense narration—something I’m usually not fond of.
This book has a nostalgic feel with interesting characters and a satisfying unpredictable ending.
