4.5

The way that all the cases weave together, some related via the plot and others thematically, makes this novella feel incredibly well crafted. The worldbuuilding is rich , and there is something satisfying about reading about a kind, competent person helping others. Despite the sometimes grim subject matter, the book feels cozy.
