A cosy murder mystery with a clever plot that kept me guessing till the end!

I really loved the sense of community. The whole cast of characters are relatable, everyday people and Pearl especially is absolutely brilliant. This was a well-plotted entertaining read, with enough twists to keep you turning the pages.

This novel was the first Whitstable Pearl Mystery but I didn't feel at a disadvantage having not read the previous books it works well as a standalone. That being said I am now off on the hunt for the rest of the series.

A huge thanks to Anne Cater & Constable for sending me a copy in return for an open & honest review.
