I'm so happy I read this story because I discovered a great writer.
There's a vibe of Golden Age mystery in this story as it could be the beginning of one of those mysteries set after WWII (I love them).
The author delivers a gripping story, full of humour, and her characters are well thought and represent different type of human being. They're realistic and interesting.
The aftermath and the scars of the war are well described and it's a great depiction of an era.
Highly recommended.
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine
