A classic murder mystery set in old times, yet not too much gore, and with the twist of the female protagonist that is before her time. I did like it but was also looking something of the sort, not a fantastic or creative book, not in writing or in plot but a good read or listen away book with a grows twist in the end that you kind of feel coming but still shocked

I found this book to be really frustrating and pretty misogynistic. The two main characters were also frustratingly oblivious when it came to figuring out the mysteries, and there were several times where it was really obvious what was going on, and they took stating the obvious to get it.
