A Shilling for Candles by Josephine Tey
3.0
An interesting mystery in which a variety of people are guilty of a variety of things, but only one of them committed murder--not for a reason I found believable.
One star off because of the antisemitism. Even the positive stereotypes were still off-putting, as if English and Jewish were two different species of human beings.
I enjoyed [b:Fear in the Sunlight|13069249|Fear in the Sunlight (Josephine Tey, #4)|Nicola Upson|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1327358596l/13069249._SY75_.jpg|18235286], which referred back to this book, better than the original, and I liked the Marta and Lydia characters that [a:Nicola Upson|984417|Nicola Upson|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1400494637p2/984417.jpg] came up with better than their namesakes by [a:Josephine Tey|44023|Josephine Tey|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1193918690p2/44023.jpg].
