Anthony Gilbert was a new to me mystery writer and I am more than happy I got this ARC because it is an amazing story.
It's a complex and enjoyable story with a cast of interesting and well thought characters.
There's a lot of secrets and an interesting description of the historical background.
The mystery is solid and the solution, after a lot of twists and red herrings, came as a surprise.
Another great addition to the British Library Crime Classics collection and I will look for other books by this author as I read this one in two settings and found it gripping and entertaining.

This is the first book I read in this series and won't surely be the last as I really loved this one.
It's darker than the average cozy even it shares the main tropes of the classic cozy (small town, quirky characters).
The characters are well thought and likeable, the setting is lovely and vivid, the mystery is solid and full of twists and turns.
I had no great issues with the plot or the characters but I think it can be more enjoyable if one read the previous instalment.
I look forward to reading other story in this series, recommended.

I loved the gothic elements, they're fascinating and well woven into the plot.
It was an excellent read that kept me guessing till the end.

I read the first book in this series and loved it as much as I loved this one.
The mix of historical fiction, romance and time travel works perfectly and this novel is entertaining and unputdownable.
It was great to travel back in time and it was great to meet again the well thought cast of characters, both old and new.
The book is well researched and well written and the descriptions of the past age are interesting and vivid.

Even though I liked the synopsis this book failed to keep my attention and it fell flat.
Not my cup of tea.
