This book was a recommendation from Nick. It was really enjoyable! Definitely a different type of read to read about lady assassins in their 60s. I actually found myself curious about the characters and would probably read a second installment in this series. It almost felt like this should have been the middle book of a trinity, that we could have learned a lot about their training and their background and the Museum from a first book. Not to say that this book was lacking, just that there was a lot of rich material there to provide context and history.
Graphic: Violence and Murder
Minor: Injury/Injury detail, Sexism, and Misogyny
