I couldn’t wait for the next installment of Flavia’s adventures. This did not disappoint but it also felt as if Bradley was setting her up for the future now that she’s not a little girl anymore…

Audiobook.

While a welcome addition to the series, it doesn’t feel as true to the Flavia de Luce work as others.
