Reviews from Goodreads and Amazon
“A Fantastic Finale to a Favorite Series! This might be my favorite mystery in the whole series—absolutely gripping from start to finish! The pacing was spot-on, with just the right balance of suspense and emotion. Once I started reading, I couldn’t put it down. The mystery kept me guessing the whole way through. I suspected everyone at some point (so many clever red herrings!), and the ending was both surprising and satisfying.
“The historical details were woven in beautifully, and the epilogue tied everything together in a really thoughtful way. I’m sad the series is over, but this was the perfect send-off. I already want to start back at the beginning and read it all again! Highly recommend to fans of smart, engaging historical mysteries.”
“Whodunit? The most obvious person or the least? That’s the dilemma every reader will have as they attempt to unravel the fabric of this mystery! Marjorie and Frankie team up to try and solve the murder while Mrs. Jameson for unknown reasons goes silent. Loved this latest book in the series and enjoyed learning more about each character. All the answers are here! Highly recommend the series for every lover of a good mystery ~ and the series would make a perfect gift!”
“The author’s impeccable descriptions of time and place, the setting of the story on the Kent coast are pure delight; the pacing is spot on, perfectly balancing suspense and emotion. The characters, old and new, are vividly described.”
“One of my favourite books in the Marjorie Swallow series. A really excellent finale to the current series of Marjorie Swallow books. I hope the pause isn’t too long! Lots of intrigue and red herrings. It was a real pleasure to read.”
“I loved this and was gripped throughout. I was right there in the hotel with Marjorie Swallow – Sayburn Lane’s plucky, canny sleuth – trying to work out the clues alongside her that would reveal whodunnit. This time, there was the added suspense of working our way towards ‘What happened in Rome?’ – the question that has been posed throughout the series. The answer to that question was utterly ingenious! Highly recommended.”
“Once again, Anna Sayburn Lane has given us another story of what leads to murder and its sad consequences, well researched and beautifully written. Mrs Jameson’s past is finally explained, throwing light on her character. I’d love to read more about Marjorie, Frankie and Iris some time. I’ll miss them.”
