Another hit from June Hur! If you're a fan of The Red Palace, you need to pickup A Crane Among Wolves. Full of court drama, political intrigue, a murder investigation and our protagonist desperate to save her sister amidst all this turmoil. 

Iseul was a great protagonist who really grows throughout the novel, alongside her is a fantastic cast of side characters with well fleshed out stories. Wonsik was my absolute favourite.

The mystery was great and it was a real pageturner. Highly recommended!

Thanks to Netgalley & Headline for this arc!
