I was already into this before I realized it was technically a book 2, but this was not a problem at all. While there may be some character backstory I missed out on, enough information was provided for me to keep up with not only the case, but the characters story as well. 

I really enjoy stories like this. It’s a female “investigator” in a time when that was definitely man’s work. Plus the case itself?? Killing with flowers?? I’m here for it. That was such an interesting storyline!

I received the audiobook from NetGalley and the narration was spot on for this book. It made it an immersive experience and I love that.
