Readable and compelling but I might have liked it better if I wasn't already a fan of Johnson's Stevie Bell mysteries, because the similarity in tone only made narrator Marlowe seem meh in comparison to Stevie. It doesn't help that she completely submerges her own personality for love, with great success too. 😬

The dancing rainbows were flying off the twenty or so prisms that were stuck to the large window, full of late afternoon sun. I had to shield my eyes against the onslaught, even as it appeared I was being refueled with pure, nuclear-grade queer power.
I'm at a strange old Manor house in the Thousand Islands and I think there may have been a murder...

I'm at a manor house in the 1,000 Islands that has just been opened to the public after having been closed up when tragedy struck in 1932...
I expect new tour guide Marlowe will help uncover the mystery.

pickGood teen mystery. If you liked Johnson's Truly Devious series, you'll also like this. This is a standalone with a teen solving a disappearance in the current time paired with historical story happening in the same location.
pickFun and murderful, just like I expect from Maureen Johnson! Although this is not part of the Truly Devious series, this snarky queer young adult protagonist feels tonally similar to Stevie.
Having read 5 books by Maureen Johnson before, I just had this feeling while cracking open the book: “there‘s going to be a map.” Sure enough!
Ok, I‘m going in…
Maureen Johnson has a new book out! I'm a really huge fan of her Truly Devious series, so I'm really excited to see what this new standalone offers! 🥰 #catsoflitsy #rumpel
pickThis was such a thrilling read. I have been reading more YA thrillers lately and I tend to be disappointed by some but this one was so thrilling and it grabbed me from the start.
I enjoyed the two mysteries and finding out how they were related to each other. I really enjoyed everything about this book. I think this is the first book I‘ve read by this author.
Thank you so much to the publisher for an advance copy via NetGalley!
so-soThis pales in comparison to Johnson's other YA mysteries. [Full review to come . . . hopefully.]
It‘s sooooo good!!! #maureenjohnson #netgalley Relase Date: Aug.6 🫶
