A short read beautifully written. Excellent for filling those end-of -year Goodreads challenge quotas, but more than that, it’s a quick thrilling ride for anyone with a curious mind.

This ARC was a nice short read, interesting short stories, I enjoyed getting through them. The stories were both cozy, and creepy, nice variety

This is a really quirky, fun collection of mystery and mystery-fantasy short stories.

Most of the stories are standalone shorts, but a few feature the recurring characters of aged spies Emily and Arthur as they can’t resist getting drawn into a few local mysteries.

Every one of these stories is well-written and entertaining and I happily devoured the whole book with not a single qualm.

I loved this collection – it makes ideal light reading – and I would read more from this author on the strength of these clever little stories alone.

This was a difficult book to get into. The plot and characters tended to get boring so I could not finish the book. I would be willing to see what else the author has to offer

A book like this would usually spark my interest, which is why I was interested in reviewing it.

This was an interesting collection of short stories. The writing was good, and I found the stories quite fun and quirky. It was a very light read, less than 100 pages, and probably the type of book that I'd pick up if I wanted to squeeze in one more book before the next book club meeting.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for a free copy to review.

This collection ran the gamut, but I liked the variety and the quick read. When it’s busy it feels good to read a while story and be able to put the book down when you’re done. This collection. Is perfect when you want a shorter story and can go from full on creep to cozy.
