A good mystery. Very clever plot that held my interest to the very end.

A bit of a chore.. The premise of this novel is interesting enough, but I found it to be quite poorly edited. The text is fraught with anatopisms that jarred me out of believing that I was in England in the early 1900s—for example, a reference to the “hood” of a car, rather than the “bonnet.” The persistent lack of a possessive adjective with gerunds (e.g., the erroneous “I appreciate you taking the time,” instead of “I appreciate your taking the time”) makes me wonder if anyone actually went over the text thoroughly prior to publication. I found this error particularly irritating when it cropped up in Agatha’s dialogue. Lastly, the present tense in Archie’s timeline is, I’m sure, designed to lend immediacy to those scenes, but it comes across as being more cumbersome than enriching. The novel has some redeeming qualities—it’s a fairly quick read and reasonably entertaining—but, for me, it falls flat overall.

Could not stand this book. There is so much wrong with this book I don’t even know where to begin. Perhaps most of all are the absolutely despicable characters—not one redeeming character in the book. Second, the storyline is not only implausible but has so many continuity errors in it that the author’s intent to create a “mystery” is completely undone: a charade not unlike that of her character. Do not waste your time with this read—I regret the hours I can’t get back and only finished it because it was a book for my book club.

Beautifully Written but.... The language was beautiful and I love the way she flushed out Agatha and the way her mind works. Archie is a bit flat, and the last half of the book is also a bit disappointing and lack luster as the build up has a relatively anticipated ending. All things considered—I do love the depiction of a cherished woman in history and the message about taking the reins of your own story.

Recommend. Fun read that I couldn’t put down
