This book follows three incarnations of famous fictional detective, Dahlia Lively, as they attempt to solve a murder at a weekend convention dedicated to the character they all once played.
I really enjoyed this book. It is a very well paced and well plotted mystery that constantly kept me guessing. I really enjoyed the final reveal of who the murderer was and all the little reveals throughout the book. I really liked the characters and I found them to be very distinctive and I could easily tell them apart throughout the story. This book is also very much a love letter to the murder mystery genre and in particular the 'Golden Age of Crime' which I really liked. I also liked the writing and it kept me engaged and constantly turning the pages.
Would highly recommend to murder mystery fans!
