KJ Charles has always had elements of murder mystery to her books, so it's not surprising to have her putting it front and center now with the M/M romance secondary. And what a rewarding read. Charles managed to make the characters under suspicion loveable, though I didn't trust one, rightfully so. I appreciate her focus on making her heroes from the lower class. It makes them so much more relatable.

I'm sure it's possible for someone to write a murder mystery that is more exactly suited to my tastes, but I'm not sure it's probable. I told myself "I'll finish reading this on my lunch break" and then took my life into my own hands by finishing it on my walk in to work instead. It's a bit of an emotional rollercoaster, with some cool twists.
