This started off slow, but I became fully engrossed in this mystery! And the twist at the end totally surprised me.

I was honestly bowled over by this. It's so interesting the pacing, the murders, the dark magic, all of it just perfectly told. The storyline while taking a little to get going is wonderfully atmospheric and I immediately wanted to know what was going on with the witchy ladies and Venables and the strange deaths. 
I worked out some bits of the ending but not all which in my opinion is the perfect feeling an ending of a mystery book can give you. Satisfied cause you figured some of it out but also surprised because some of it got past you. Love it love it love it. A new all-time favourite 💕

It was a little slower than I like, it took a few chapters to really get into it, but over all I enjoyed the book. The plot was good and I had theories going through my head the whole book.

A very enjoyable one, with more of a paranormal/spooky atmosphere than is typical for Christie.
