My Review
MoMo’s Book Diary was excited to read this book after reading the description. It is a good mystery which had me hooked from the start.
Unfortunately, the author tends to get caught up in detail sometimes which makes it quite slow moving but the wonderfully atmospheric descriptions of the Cornish landscape kept me hooked.
A gripping and satisfying read. I will read this author again.
