Review
Wow! This was an excellent mystery! The author does a great job introducing her characters so you know who is who without difficulty. I felt like I had read other things with Lena and Camilla because I was so comfortable with them immediately. The mystery for this book was great – I kept getting surprised by what happened. All my theories were wrong. I loved getting to be surprised by a well-plotted mystery!
I felt like I got a bonus with this book because there’s an over-arching mystery that comes up early in the book, carries throughout, and is the primary focus of the last chapter after the main mystery for this book was done. And the over-arching mystery will carry readers right into book 2. Death in Dark Blue is currently scheduled to release on May 2, 2017 (release dates subject to change).
Great book. I have read her other books and this is by far my favorite. I am anxious to read Julia Buckley’s next book in this series. I hope that Death in Dark Blue will be just as good.
