A Memory Called Empire was excellent, this one is even better.
It's another gripping page turner that keeps you hooked and enthralled.
The plot is tightly knitted and complex, the world building is excellent and expand what we already knew, great character development.
Arkady Martine is an excellent storyteller and this novel is strongly recommended.
It can be read as a standalone as it's a follow up to A Memory Called Empire.
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine

Well written and full of potential, unfortunately i found it confusing and too slow.
Not my cup of tea.

Even if I like this series I am not fond of this book.
It's a bit over my suspension of belief and Celeste grated on my nerves.
Not my cup of tea.

Another good stories featuring Albert Campion.
It's a highly entertaining and engrossing story that mixes long lost stories with murders taking place at the time of the story.
I was happy to catch up with the characters, loved the humour and the complex plot that kept me hooked.
The descriptions of East Anglia, the tradition and the mix of past and present are fascinating and the complex mystery kept me guessing.
I can't wait to read another story in this series, this one is highly recommended.

This series is becoming a favorite as I love the humor and the quirky characters.
This is the second novel and I thoroughly enjoyed it as it's engrossing and highly entertaining.
It's not a classic whodunit as it mixes the personal story of the characters with the plot and the mystery is part of a more complex story with a number of subplots.
The author does an excellent job in delivering a story that flows and never confuses the reader, it always keeps your attention alive and all the different subplots are very enjoyable.
The historical background is well researched and vivid. Even if David is high-middle class we meet people from all the social classes and there's plenty of description of how terrible was the life of the poor.
I love David but I also love Alan, the travelling preacher cousin who wants to help people to meet Jesus through joy. The letters that Alan write are always interesting and funny.
The mystery is solid and the solution came as a surprise.
I strongly recommend this novel as it's well written and entertaining.
