I didn't expect this story when I picked it up, but it really captured my attention and I was eager to keep listening. 
I enjoyed the setting and the characters, I think the elements of mystery brought this story to life as otherwise it could have been a little slow. 
A good read and a nice change from other historical stories.

Even If I predicted the ending (kind of) I enjoyed the book.

"I wondered if there was a word for homesickness not for a place but for people; I didn't miss the flat itself or our bedroom, only the warm, unique feeling of being around those who knew me best." Page 80

Quick read, a bit anticlimactic and predictable
