The Winter Garden Mystery by Carola Dunn
4.0
adventurous funny lighthearted
Plot or Character Driven: Plot
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: Yes

thoroughly enjoyed this quaint and cosy murder mystery. it reminded me of the agatha christie episodes i used to watch when i was younger, set in idyllic country villages and beautiful manors with a variety of colourful and particular characters. daisy, the main character, and her friend alec, a chief inspector at scotland yard, were both compelling to read and i loved their dynamic. the mystery itself was intriguing to unravel, and i would definitely pick up more from this series (i randomly picked this up from the library and i think it’s the second book out of a rather long series).
