A Study in Black Brew by Marie Howalt

fast-paced

5.0

A Study in Black Brew is a fun, cozy Sci-Fi mystery that resides in the same realm as the Colibri Investigation series.  In book 3 of that series (The Wenamak Web) we are introduced to the two main characters in this story.  I love a good spin-off and thoroughly enjoyed reading this one. 

I love this author's writing. The characters are fun and have great banter. I also like that the mystery is interesting and keeps you reading.  As a retelling, the Sherlock Holmes vibes are on point. Definitely one to put on those bookish radars  and grab when it releases on May 22, 2025. 

I sincerely appreciate the author for the review copy. All opinions are my own.
