The Blood Flower by Alex Reeve

motherofladybirds's review against another edition

3.0

I enjoyed the change of setting to portsmouth and the naval connection. Theatre, circus, seances and molly clubs all added to the mix and the pursuit of the blood flower was worthy of sherlock holmes. Sad to see Leo go, but fully understand the reasons.

I was glad to catch up with Leo and sad to say goodbye. It's another entertaining, brilliant, and well thought novel that kept me hooked.
I loved Leo, a well rounderd and relatable character.
The historical background and the setting are vivid, the mystery solid, the characters fleshed out.
Highly recommended.
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine
