I love traditional mystery and this is an engrossing and entertaining historical mystery with a fascinating story and a great cast of characters.
It's the first I read by this author and won't surely be the last because I thoroughly enjoyed it.
The mystery is solid, full of twists and turns, and I liked the vivid historical background.
The plot flows and it kept me guessing and turning pages.
Highly recommended.
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine
