At Death's Door by Anna Legat
5.0

When I reviewed Death Comes to Bishops Well I wrote that it was a series full of promises, this book is up to the potential of this entertaining series.
It's a cozy mystery but it's also a family saga as family, relationships and secrets are at the center of the plot.
Maggie and Sam's relationship is growing and I hope they will be able to bring it to the next step.
There's a cold case, an old story related to one of the aristocratic family, and there's a lot of secrets related to Maggie's family and her sister Andrea, who's back after disappearing long ago.
It's a complex plot full of twists and surprises. I wasn't able to guess the twists and appreciated the solution.
The author did a good job in developing the characters and keeping the tension high, especially when it comes to Andrea.
I read it in one sitting and thoroughly enjoyed it.
Highly recommended.
Many thanks to Headline Accent, Rachel’s Random Resources, and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine
