Blanche on the Lam: A Blanche White Mystery by Barbara Neely

3.0

I really really liked Blanche and her whole style. She was awesome as a protagonist. I didn't really like the ending though. Not who the murderer was, that was fine and I was rooting for that. But how it was revealed rubbed me the wrong way, it seemed too easy. But on the way there, we got a really awesome plot twist, which I didn't guess in advance! A bit of a mixed bag in the end. The prose was really beautiful though, and the country house in which the book is set is almost another character.
