An excellent historical mystery, engrossing and entertaining.
The plot is complex and flows, the historical background is vivid and realisti, the cast of characters well thought and interesting.
The mystery is solid and it kept me guessing.
It's the first book I read in this series and won't surely be the last. It can be read as a standalone.
Recommended.
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine.
