Another great read! Aside from Cleo, it was really great to see some character growth in other quarters - especially Floyd and Harmony. I'm not sure if Cleo is growing or to what extent she's growing, but her family seems to be accepting her more, which I appreciate. It can be tiring, even as a reader, to have her constantly hiding from her family. I like that she can be a little more open with them. For now.

I'm glad that Cleo and Harry were able to pick up where they left off and continue investigating together. I wasn't sure what to expect after the previous book ended. (I don't think that's a spoiler, but I'm always happy to mark it if needed). And even more exciting, I learned that the next book is coming out in December! So I get to continue the story sooner rather than later.

Another chill regency era murder mystery with the ever enjoyable Cleopatra Fox. Sure the murder mystery is there, but really we’re there for the hot gossip and what’s going on in the character’s lives as we get glimpses of them between cases.

A loveable cast of characters to draw on.
