4.0
My favorite Flavia de Luce mystery so far, this book had an unpredictable mystery and some tense scenes of investigation. Still mostly plot-driven, but you can see how Flavia's character and understanding of others is developing throughout the series.
Moderate: Child death, Blood, Death of parent, and Murder
