A Beautiful Blue Death by Charles Finch
2.0
Took me awhile to finish this book. There was something inherently wrong with the writing. Something was definitely missing. I did not feel at all eager to know what would happen next. A tad bit slow paced and the main protagonist was referred to as an intelligent man but he seemed to miss some clues which made me doubt how truly intelligent he was.
Lady Jane, the so called love interest, was not fleshed out as befits a main character of a novel.
Back to the writing, the author seemed to repeat himself quite a lot in his descriptions of characters. We have already established that Lady Jane was Lenox's childhood friend. You don't need to repeat it numerous times throughout the narrative.
Sadly, I bought the first three books, so I might as well read the others at some point.
