I enjoyed this book as a bit of a cozy thriller, like it was gentle and slow but maybe a little bit too much so! I was pretty keen to get to the end, 1. to find out what happened and 2. because it was a bit slow and boring! The end definitely picked it up a bit

I don't know what it is about Holly Throsby novels but I just adore them. So much so I'll forgive the little "oh remember these other towns I wrote about in my other books??" references

“There’s more than one mystery in this town”? Barely one.
