As always, a delight. Robin Stevens is so good at plotting a mystery and revealing clues a tiny bit at a time. This was absolutely worth the wait, and I’m already excited for the next book!

Really loved this book and excited to read the next one. Robin Stevens is an expert at murder mysteries! I also love the autistic and ADHD representation in this book, even if it's never stated in the text (likely due to the time period)
I will say that I much prefer the original series' characters and setting but I also understand that when I started those books, I was the main target audience and these books are very much for the next generation so it's definitely a personal opinion. And I love that I've grown up with Daisy and Hazel, and how they return in this book. It's a children's book but clearly knows that fans who have grown up will be reading it too 😅
