The Key In The Lock: A haunting historical mystery steeped in explosive secrets and lost love by Beth Underdown

dark emotional slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

3.5

Really struggled at the start but powered on through, slow beginning that does pick up pace. Ending was confusing and disappointing. Although I enjoyed the concept of the book and how it dealt with loss, grief, marital problems, and the time it was set in.
