This is an enthralling and gripping read that will keep you reading.
It's a mix of gothic atmosphere, mystery, romance and supernatural.
You read and it seems there's a lot of pieces apparently disjointed but they will all fall into place.
I think that the Manor and it's secret are one of the main characters and they are so well written that you cannot picture them in your mind.
Hettie and Lucy are fleshed out and interesting characters but there's a lot of character development for any of the character in this story.
The author is quite talented and the storytelling is excellent.
It was a great read read, highly recommended.
Many thanks to the publisher and Edelweiss for this ARC, all opinions are mine.

When I requested this ARC I was thinking about quaint English villages and Miss Marple.
I was wrong but I truly appreciated this three thrillers with some horror elements that kept me on the edge.
I liked the well crafted plots, the characters and the style of writing.
Highly recommended.

A very good start for a new series! It's well written, full of humour and engrossing.
I loved the likable and fleshed out cast of characters, the lovely setting and the entertaining and fund to read plot.
The mystery was good, no plot hole, and it kept me guessing till the end.
I look forward to reading the next installment in this series.
Highly recommended!

I still have to find a Rhys Bowen's story I didn't like.
This one was entertaining and engrossing with a well researched historical background and a cast of interesting characters.
Ms Bowen is a talented storyteller and the story flow.
Recommended.

I love this series and was more than happy when I got this ARC.
It's an engrossing and entertaining story even if I found it a bit slow at the beginning.
But the book worked his magic and after a while I was hooked and read it late in the night to know what the solution was.
It was great to meet again the cast of characters, I was more than happy about the development in the story between Violette and Rainweather. The characters are well thought as usual and likeable.
The mystery is solid, full of red herrings and twists, and the solution came as a surprise.
I can't wait to read the next installment.
Highly recommended.

I loved the first instalment in this series and I loved this one.
It's well written, the characters are well developed, the world building interesting, the plot flows and is engrossing.
An entertaining read, highly recommended.

Even if I loved the world building and the characters the plot felt a bit disjointed and it didn't keep my attention.
Not my cup of tea.

Bill Pronzini never disappointed me and this story is no exception.
A gripping and entertaining novel with a vivid historical background and a great cast of characters.
The mystery is solid and it kept me guessing.
Highly recommended.

This book is so interesting and full of food for thought that I find hard to review.
It's well written and well researched, full of interesting facts and reflection about the impact of the humanity on our environment.
A great read, strongly recommended.

First book I read in this series and won't surely be the last.
It's an excellent mystery, well crafted and solid, with a great cast of characters and a vivid depiction of Savannah.
I found it engrossing and entertaining, recommended.
