The characters are engaging, the background information clear, the plot is full of red herrings, and a twist or three. The pacing is a bit irregular, but unlike TV/films, books always get better with succeeding stories in series, so I am looking forward to the next and more. I requested and received an EARC fro Boldwood Books via NetGalley. Thank you! ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse

Being the proprietor of a bookshop is never easy, especially when you’re a woman in a man’s world. Throw in the mayhem of war and murder, recreational drugs and speakeasies and it’s a compelling read! I hope we get to see what the future has in store for Hannah and her Aunt Violet. ( )
