Silent in the Grave by Deanna Raybourn

2.0

---

I absolutely LOVE Raybourn's Veronica Speedwell series and I've been meaning to read her earlier work for a while now. This is the first I've read outside of that series and it was a pretty big disappointment. I feels like an old first draft to the Speedwell series; it is very similar but the characters have since been refined and are less petulant all around. I strongly recommend skipping this one and starting with A Curious Beginning.
