This book was a true master peace I loved it from beginning to end.

And can I just say I’m in love with Thomas Cresswell!

Ugh, I have no words I’m speechless. I loved this book, it was truly amazing. I was so enthralled with the writing I felt like a detective. I seriously could not put this book down. Kerri Maniscalco had me hooked from the first sentence. I love it when books are able to pull you in right off the bat. I wasn’t too shocked by the plot twist because I was able to deduce it in the earlier chapters. But it was still so exciting. I can’t stop thinking about this book and I wish I had the second one already.

Confieso que este fue el libro que menos me gustó, porque el misterio no me atrapó tanto como en los dos libros pasados, PERO lo disfruté porque ya vemos un poco más de romance al estilo victoriano, pero no con las normas convencionales o formalismos propios; así que justo por eso no le di menor calificación a este libro.

Además siempre es bueno disfrutar de la personalidad de Thomas Cresswell y de su muy particular sentido del humor.

Por lo demás, no rescató más de este libro, porque además no me gustó lo que la escritora hace con nuestra heroína, pero no hay mayor problema con eso.

It’s a 2.5. But I can’t bring myself to round all the way up. It’s a blatant Sherlock Holmes fan fiction that doesn’t even change some of the names, and for a outspoken and strong girl she certainly crumbles like a saltine cracker whenever a guy looks at her. I liked Thomas as a character and I enjoyed their banter. I also liked the twist at the end. Her father’s final decision was so out of character from what we knew about him and the medium didn’t seem to really hold a necessary space in the book. I was frustrated because I had such high hopes for this book and it didn’t meet any of them. Also that’s what she calls flirting??
However despite all the issues I had with it, I did like the plot overall and after the first 1/3 of the book I liked the writing and the characters I thought were well developed.
I was planning on reading the rest of the series, but now I’m glad I didn’t buy this or any of the other books. I may give it a second chance at some point but it’s very unlikely.
