Read the 2024-re-release. I felt like it's pretty obviously an older Hall-book, it's a lot slower and much more emotional than more recent releases, and the pace took me out of the story a bit too often. I'm a bit miffed that I read a re-release and somehow there were still HP references in it? Other than that it was definitely a good read, if you're in the mood for an emotional, slow book that really builds up to it.

Phyllida is back and wonderful as always.

This time we leave the countryside and join the household in London, where a series of mysterious murders take place in various theatres - with a fun hint of an ABC Murders-vibe. As always Phyllida is a darn delight, the household is wonderful, and this time there's even a little sprinkle of romance in Phyllida's life! Utterly delightful. Loved every moment.
