Death on the Down Beat: An Orchestral Fantasy of Detection by Sebastian Farr

3.75

This one was fun- a bit overly technical on some of the music bits (I play the flute badly and took one music theory class in college which I found baffling) but overall entertaining and fast-paced. That said... yeah, that ending came out of NOWHERE. I hadn't even remembered that a character of that name existed. Had to deduct a bunch for that especially as the epistolary nature of the book made it not feel like there was a whole lot of plot to even narratively build up to it, let alone from the perspective of the crime-solving.
