This ended up being a completely enjoyable continuation of the Mr. Darcy and Miss Tilney mystery series. The two leads continue to be endearing and loveable and the series only gets better with the more time you spend with the characters. It's really the characters that keep you wanting to turn the page and engage with the story.

While the mystery doesn't end up being as climactic as one would hope/expect, it still left me questioning through a lot of the book which makes for a solid cozy mystery. If you're already a fan of Austen's work and want something that gives you the same feeling in a cozy mystery genre, this is an excellent option!
