This was another fun read in the Clara Vale series. It was great to see Clara grow and develop as PI and I loved all the new characters, especially Bella!

Another fun mystery in the Clara Vale series. Clara is a private investigator, a rare thing for a lady in 1929. She finds herself in the midst of a travelling pantomime when Cinderella's Fairy Godmother is found dead, swiftly followed by a second murder. Poisonings, jewel theft, adulterous spouses and clandestine activities abound in this whodunnit mystery. I loved this one as much as the first. #thepantomimemurders #fionaveitchsmith #claravale #emblabooks
