It's the first book I read by this author and I'm a bit on the fence because I found it interesting but very slow.
The historical background is well researched and vivid, the characters are fleshed but the I struggled a bit with the plot.
Not my cup of tea.

This is the first book I read by this author and I'm sure it won't be the last because i loved it.
It's a complex and gripping mystery, a police procedural with a paranormal side that kept me hooked and turning pages as fast as I could.
The plot is fast paced and tightly knitted, I loved how the author mixes the present mystery with a past story making them work and creating an enthralling story.
The characters are interesting and well thought, the mystery is solid and it kept me guessing till the end.
The solution was complex and I was satisfied by how all pieces fell into place.
An entertaining and engrossing story that I strongly recommend.

It's an engrossing and enjoyable cozy mystery, well written and plotted.
I liked Libby, Max and the cast of characters, the solid mystery kept me guessing.

I didn’t know what to expect and I choose this book because I found the blurb fascinating and I thought it could be a lot of fun.
It is a lot of fun but even if the blurb talked about Agatha Christie I can say that it’s quite different, more steampunk mixed with intrigue and secret society than Golden Age tropes.
This is a gripping and highly entertaining story, I had a lot of fun reading of the organisations, how it works and the secrets that can exist in a secret organization.
The plot is fast paced, full of twists and turns, well written and I wasn’t able to put it down once I was hooked (after a few pages).
Marion is a very interesting characters: a girl who was hurt by life and is struggling for her independence and happiness. The character development is excellent and the cast of characters is fleshed outand interesting.
I loved the complex and detailed world building and I hope this is part of a series because I want to learn more about the organization and the characters.
I had a lot of fun reading it and it’s highly recommended.

The excellent start for a new cozy series. I just ended the first and I'm ready for the second
I thoroughly enjoyed it and read it in one setting, it's highly entertaining and engrossing.
The plot is fast paced and tightly knitted, full of twists and humour.
I loved Jodie, an interesting and well written heroine, and the cast of characters is well thought and likable.
The mystery is full of suspects and the solution came as a surprise.
I can't wait for the next installment, highly recommended.

A highly entertaining and gripping story, I loved what I read and I hope it is the first in a series featuring this great senior.
It's very funny and heartbreaking at time, the senior characters are fleshed out, realistic and likable. I loved them and I love how well they were developed.
The mystery is solid, full of twists and red herring, and the solution came as a surprise.
The author is a talented storyteller and I couldn't put down this story laughing, rooting for the characters and being moved reading some parts.
I can't wait to read the next book by this author as I loved this one.
Gripping, entertaining and brilliant, it's strongly recommended.
