A review by suleika
The Icarus Plot by Jenny Schwartz

5.0

What a great short story! I normally don't read historical but I have to say this one surprised me, it was really good. It's a mystery with a little bit of romance thrown in there as well. I loved the characters. Ivana and Andrew make a great pair and I loved how the author didn't make the story all about them and the side "love story". It has a great plot and the story is well written.
The story has a little bit of dark in it but nothing too dark and it does have a good outcome in the end.
I liked the kids, they were funny at times and I loved how Sammy was so courageous.
Our heroine Ivana is also very strong and I loved how she didn't just wanted the Earl to save her or the kids.
I loved how it ended and it made me laugh a few times.
HEA with lots of mystery and a sprinkle of romance.
Will recommend to my friends.
