Moonflower Murders by Anthony Horowitz
4.0

I had to wait so long to read this book and it was worth it. Rather than bless us with the Atticus Pund story at the beginning, we're left with a large section of it in the middle. This unfortunately dragged down the pace of the book, which is my only criticism of the book.

The rest of it is a dynamic whodunnit packed with lies and deceit. I found myself flipping the pages faster and faster and literally screaming out loud when we got to the big reveal. This book has red herrings unlike the last, and has Susan really coming into her own as an amateur detective. Definitely perfect for an armchair sleuth.
