4.5

I was a bit frustrated at the beginning of this book. We got a pretty huge thing for the overarching story happening at the end of last book and here went back to business as usual with a completely unrelated case.

But that feeling passed quickly as I thought this particular case was very compelling and we also always got little bits and pieces to the overarching story that got the Mystery going in a very intruiging way.

Our nerdy police officer Peter was likeable and relatable as always and the humor got a lot of good chuckles. Especially his working together and interacting with Beverly and Dominic was really fun.

So yeah, I guess this my favorite Rivers of London novel so far. This was just thoroughly enjoyable from front to back.
