This one reminded me very much of The Moving Finger by Agatha Christie, only with another real crime and an ending that was quite suprising. But I still ahd to think of Christie the whole time.

This was a lovely story. Clean romance. Historical. Loved the characters and the writing. I bought the next one in the series. 🤓 It was like a warm blanket at the end of a cold day. I could count in it being comforting and pleasant. 🙃 #romance #historical

This is fiction, but is based on/inspired by a true crime which culminated in the penultimate execution of a woman in Britain in the 1950s. It‘s told from the viewpoint of Zina and also her young Greek translator, Eva, and encompasses immigration, cultural translation and the treatment of women, particularly in the legal system, as well as the “whodunnit” element itself. The courtroom scenes are particularly sobering.

Cathythoughts Great review 👍🏻 I enjoyed this one. 12h

This book is badass and I can‘t wait for more of the nakhudha‘s adventures. “What madness to gaze upon the violent chaos and cruelty of this world and have faith!”

Can't believe we've gone from snow and freezing rain to a random day at 20 Celsius!! Heading back down to colder temperatures tonight though ☹️. Staring this one for #authoramonth . I enjoyed the first book in this series so thought I'd give book 2 a read. Looking forward to journeying into Ancient Rome! @Soubhiville

My favourite part of the trilogy! Enemies to Lovers is just so up my alley. Marske is still continuing the main plot, so every now and then the romance part is reduced, but I think it's good, that the main plot comes to a good end. The series wasn't a highlight, but I enjoyed reading the books
