The sequel disappointed, but still love this.

An old rambling house, eccentric characters, a disappearing body and a slow romance - I'm happy.
A good old-fashioned gothic-styled cosy, nodding to too many well loved authors to name.
Our damsel in distress is the unfortunate Perry, having a bad day even before the corpse appears, with added asthma. Our hero ex-navy SEAL Nick, man of action. Perry shows his share of brains, argueably better suited to detecting than brawny Nick. The two get togeth ...more

Great to read a Lanyon book in 3rd person dual POV. It's rare in Josh's books that you get the perspective of the more alpha of the characters.
I found the mystery to be excellent especially in a 'golden age' style with disappearing bodies and the like. And the slow burn relationship was adorable.

4.5 stars, Wow did I love Perry! Everytime I think I'm witty enough to figure out a Josh Lanyon mystery...I am as far away from the truth as possible :) Which I guess is half the fun! As always, Josh Lanyon's mysteries are a great read, they keep you guessing and the romance in this one was very understated but sweet, loved the end!

I really enjoyed the relationship between Perry and Nick. A great old "haunted" house, good mystery, and a lot of potential suspects. Another great Josh Lanyon book.
