A thoroughly enjoyable book. Hoping Zoe finds her daughter is as gripping as solving the murders.. Zoe is a thoroughly lovable character
and her story makes the book hard to put down. I hope to read more about her. The book within a book technique is fun too. .

I was looking forward to intrigue, but this one just wasn't for me. I just couldn't hang in past 30% and skipped to the end to see if I'd missed anything. I hadn't. I just couldn't relate to the lead character, her relationships or her attitude. She's an American living In France, but perhaps for me just a little too French? Or Bohemian? Hmmm, I do hope others connect.

With thanks to Netgalley and Poisoned Pen publications for my advance reader copy in exchange for an honest review
