Beautifully set in the Dolomites, Lucy was a likable FMC, with a bit of a sticky finger issue, drama with an influencer, and a mission to deliver some bad news for her eccentric employer.
Not knowing what she was in for, she stumbled upon a greater endeavor than she had anticipated. Let going of her potential future only to discover more about her families past.
WWII, a family mystery, and stolen jewels. Bearer of Bad News, was a quick, enjoyable, and touching read.
Thanks to NetGallry for the ARC!

I found this book—which I started because it sounded quirky and funny—to be extremely compelling. What began as a fairly light-hearted story about a young woman at a crossroads, personally and professionally, who takes an unusual job to deliver a piece of bad news to a woman whose last known location is in northern Italy, became a mystery stretching back to WWII. The protagonist, Lucy, is a bit of a mess, but she discovers hidden talents as she tracks down the missing woman, deals with a rather-unhinged employer, and makes her way through the Dolomites. In this fabulous setting she flirts, is accused of a crime, and becomes wrapped in a complicated puzzle. I found this book very engaging and I couldn’t stop reading. I hope that this book finds a large audience! Thanks to the author, publisher, and NetGalley for the ARC and the opportunity to provide an honest review.
