The Return of Captain John Emmett by Elizabeth Speller
4.25
challenging dark mysterious reflective slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

A dark and challenging story, with the "whodunnit" being the framework for examining the impact of the First World War on the lives of those who experienced it. A much more substantial mystery than most
