This is one of my favorite historical cozy series so it gets harder to write a meaningful review as I can only repeat what I already wrote.
It's a highly entertaining and well written series and I read this instalment in an afternoon.
I'm a fan of Christmas mystery and this novel features all the tropes I love in this kind of novel.
This series improves with each instalment, this one was a slow burning mystery as the first part was introducing the setting and the new characters.
It's a mix of spy story and mystery and I loved the plot full of twists and turns.
The characters are interesting and I was happy to catch up with Kittiy and Matt. The character development is excellent and they are all interesting.
Even if it can be read as a stand alone it's better to read the book in order as there's some backstory.
I strongly recommend it and can't wait to read the next one.
Many thanks to Bookouture and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine
