A delightful, magical twist on the locked room mystery. Ropa's facing another adventure, this time while trapped at a conference on the Isle of Skye with all the best Scottish magical practitioners. (Side note - Huchu has clearly been to a few professional conferences.) Tensions are high when a murder is committed, a valuable artifact is stolen, and the place is put on lockdown. Filled with political tension, reflections on mental health, and absolutely incredible characters, the third book in the series didn't disappoint. I find myself looking forward to cliffhangers just so I know there's another installation coming, and this delivered.
