Thanks to NetGalley and Christopher Huang for this advanced reader copy in exchange for an honest review. This was a thorough, well written and interesting golden age mystery! Huang’s depth of research is evident and I really enjoyed the characters. His portrayal of the female characters especially felt realistic for the era while also highlighting their character and agency. I wasn’t surprised by the outcome, but I thought the motive/resolve was unique enough that I didn’t mind. While it held my attention the whole time it also felt a tad slow, which is my only knock down in rating.
