Murder In Westminster by Vanessa Riley
2.0
This book had so much I was interested in: murder among London's elite, a young woman of color as the "sleuth," a diverse cast of characters, a side plot about the abolition movement of the early 1800s. But the pacing was dreadfully slow at times, the threads of the story occasionally incoherent, the whodunit both a little obvious and yet underdeveloped -- overall I struggled to care much about the characters or the story or even whether I finished the book. And that really disappointed me as I have enjoyed Riley's books before.
