The Grave's a Fine and Private Place by Alan Bradley
4.0
Since this is book nine in the series, and I've read them all, it should be an automatic clue that I quite enjoy Flavia.
If it's still a mystery why Flavia is one of my favorite detectives, I've collected nine clues for you, in honor of this being the ninth in the series:
Clue 1 - Sassy, brilliant, still naive and practical.
Clue 2 - Relationships brimming with danger, confusion and malice
Clue 3 - The onion layered character, devoted to Flavia - a mystery unto himself.
Clue 4 - Bumbling individuals who need to rely on the expertise of a child.
Clue 5 - Bygone era.
Clue 6 - Rather stiff and curious individuals.
Clue 7 - Whimsical, fanciful and yet creepy
Clue 8 - Hidden layers revealed while some are kept secret
Clue 9 - The ever faithful, though exasperated individual
I will add there was one element I deeply missed - Gladys the bike was nowhere to be found between the pages of this book. I adore Flavia's relationship with her bike.
Answers to clues:
Clue 1 - Flavia herself...
