Review

This is one of the best mystery novels I have ever read. It has everything: suspense, adventure, humor, and most of all, mystery!

All of the characters in this book are so charming, and they will steal your heart. Their little quirks and imperfections have such an impact on the way you imagine them; And the author beautifully captures it all. Constance seemed to really annoy me because of her personality, but she was the one I was most stunned by in the end.

I could not stop reading this, it had me hooked from the beginning – and kept me hooked. The author paints a clear picture in my head with his style of writing, and it makes it so much more fun to read. Some people are actually bothered by the length, but reading every single captivating detail the book has to give is worth it.
