Brilliant! This is the most complicated operation Charlotte and her lovable team have ever executed. I‘d never be able to guess all the moving parts and it made it thrilling to the end. If you haven‘t read other books you may get lost because many characters from the past resurface. She does a good job with reminders without interrupting the book, but if this is your 1st one you‘d be overwhelmed. But for the rest of us it‘s amazing!💗 this series!

This 5th and last in series was a sad and heartbreaking murder mystery with the victim a former West Indies planter. While revolving around the British slave trade, particularly in the West Indies (1785), there were some uplifting and hopeful moments as well. While I enjoyed this finale for the plot and characters, particularly the spotlight on a former slave who works as a bookseller, I found myself (on top of being sad that this great series 🔻

robinb ending) a little disappointed with the wrap up and ending. While the author did give some inkling of where some of the side characters were headed, the two mains, Harriet and Crowther were MIA…no mention of their futures at all. I was so surprised and disappointed by this. The epilogue felt very rushed and abrupt to me and unfortunately left me unsatisfied. Overall this was a wonderfully researched and well written historical 🔻 4w
robinb mystery series that I recommend. 4.25/5⭐️ 4w

The 4th book in the Electra McDonnell series (#serieslove2024), and it was a doozy. The usual escapades ensue and meet a little more or the McDonnell clan‘s underworld associates, but it the evolution of the Major and Ellie‘s relationship that made the book hum. It was joyous, hopeful and heartbreaking. Looking forward to the next.

TheSpineView Fantastic! 1mo
