It's the first book I read in this series and I'm more than happy I did because I discovered a very entertaining and well written series.
I found this book engrossing and enjoyable with an excellent description of an era and a cast of well thought and likeable characters.
Miss Dimont is a very interesting character, an indipendente and strong woman who fight to live her life and with some issues with her overbearing mother.
I loved the humour and how it impregnates every twists and turns of this novel.
The mystery is solid and even if I guess the culprit quite easily it kept me interested till the end.
Even if it's a very pleasant read and the humor keeps you read it takes a bit before the mystery part starts but I think that the author did an excellent job in introducing the characters and the environment.
This is not the first instalment in this series but I think that there's a lot backstory and the first part helps you to understand the characters and the plot.
I can't wait to read the next instalment.
A pleasant read that I strongly recommend.
Many thanks to HQ and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine.
