The Serpent Dance by Sofia Slater
4.0
dark emotional fast-paced

Impossible to put down with fantastic twists. Would have been a 5 star if Audrey was less whiny and annoying. Half of her problems would have been solved if she just spoke to people honestly…

The crime part was really brilliant though. Lots of red herrings but enough for you to take a stab at it too. With a romance subplot that didn’t feel too forced or written so badly you grimace. 

The atmosphere is dark and tense. It’s the perfect setting for a book like this.
