It’s cosy, and it’s fun! A market village that finds itself the centerpiece of macabre sacrificial murders and a mixed up, slightly kooky and nosy main character, returning to the familial home, where all is changing .

How good is it to see a main kid’s character called Tanya!
She’s not perfect, but neither is the world she lives in … She sees fairies, but she’s not allowed to say a word. No-one’s life would be in danger if the grown-ups had just stopped keeping secrets from her!
What a cracker! Gritty, unforgiving, and … a masterful new world! I want more…
When you’d rather not see what is in front of you, what are you capable of believing? Capturing a small, isolated and insular community beautifully, it’s a brilliant story; easy to read and and, unfortunately, easy to imagine.
Not necessarily an impossible crime, but certainly improbable. It’s my first foray into Ellery and I was certainly … bemused! Loved the fact that I had all the information and still couldn’t work it out!
Absolutely brilliant – wonderful story, beautifully told and with a touch of classic sass that has me wanting more!
Delightfully told, this is far more than just a cosy crime. It will have you guessing in circles!
It’s beautiful. Wonderfully told with so many question, like life, we do not always get the answers we want.
Don’t take is as a serious historical novel and you will enjoy it immensely! Although even I had a few issues with some facts and phrasing, it cracked me up!
I need to give up trying to figure these ones out and just enjoy the dark and twisty paths of a fascinating mind!
