The Silversmith's Wife by Sophia Tobin
3.0
I always do like historical mysteries and this one had me guessing. Because at times it pointed towards someone, and then someone else and then I wondered again. In the end I always suspect everyone.
The book starts with a murder. Pierre Renard, a silvesmith, that was not that liked it seems in the end. He lives behind his wife Mary, she was a wreck of nerves and had not been treated right by him.
At the beginning of every chapter we also get a page from his diary and see what really was going on with him and how much he hated his wife. Yeah, I really did not like hím.
Other Povs are Digby who found the body and investigates who did it. Then there are Mary's sister, the people who worked for Renard, his best friend and new people that comes into the story. Another POV are the Chishesters who commissioned some work from him and they deal with their own issues and his death of course. It all comes together in a fine woven plot.
Good characters, a nice plot and nicely done murder plot. I enjoyed it.
