The Crumpled Letter by Alice Quinn
2.0
I received an ARC via NetGalley, thank you! All opinions are my own.
The Crumpled Letter is a historical mystery, set in Cannes 1884 - where a chambermaid of a hotel is murdered and discovered by a courtesan, Lola. Lola seeks help to solve this murder from Miss Gabrielle Fletcher, a currently disgraced governess.
I like historical fiction mixed with mystery, especially if the characters are from "downstairs". The setting was rather lovely, but sadly I couldn't make myself care for the characters. Overall, an "okay" read.
