Customer Reviews

A good cozy mystery with important history lessons that are just part of the book.

This is good cozy mystery but more than the mystery part, I liked the historical atmosphere. I feel I learned a lot I did not know about WW1 and how dreadful this was for the English and I like the way this story discusses this by showing how the characters were impacted, not by simply saying things abut the War. The main character, Kate Shackleton is awesome and very believable. I have already ordered they next book in the series. This is a good book for anyone to read who likes cozy mysteries and for just about anyone because it gives insight into the horrors of war without being graphic, and it sheds light on the challenges women faced after the war. And it's a good mystery!

A most enjoyable read!

Very well written period piece with believable characters. It's filled with twists but not so much that you are lost, just surprised. The author certain has taken time to know England post Great War and there may be a bit of a romance building in here too. I definitely recommend!
