Bitter Orange by Claire Fuller

4.0

A perfectly spooky read, set in a historic house in the English countryside. I'm a sucker for historic houses (fun fact, I used to be a wedding planner at one!), so right from the start I loved this book. There is something so eerie about a massive abandoned house, full of items from centuries past, and that set the stage for me to be a little creeped out as the story built.

The book's description reveals that the trio living in the once-grand mansion are a bit on the mysterious side, and soon enough a heinous crime will be committed. I was constantly trying to guess what would come next and to figure out what each character's motives were. This one kept me quickly turning pages to try to solve the mystery of what crime was to come. Recommend if you like suspense in a spooky setting!
