Sadly this was a DNF for me. I really enjoyed Jo’s character but when we got to the MacAdams point of view it just didn’t keep my interest. I wanted more about the house and Jo and less of the detective work. I really tried to get into this one, but I just kept zoning out and having to reread parts when it was MacAdams point of view. I’m sure others will disagree and really enjoy this though. It was well written and I was very glad of the autism representation! We don’t see that enough. All opinions stated are solely my own! Thanks so much to Netgalley and the Publisher for a copy of the arc in return for an honest review!

This book was such a unique, fun journey. The setting was absolutely my vibe. The FMC was brilliant and stood her ground in a world of pompous men, despite any disadvantages she viewed herself as having. The writing was superb. I immediately connected to the characters and story. I will definitely recommend this to everyone I know.

This was a bizarre, unique, and entertaining murder mystery. I liked the concept and enjoyed the characters as well as how the story played out.

Jo Jones is a fish out of water. A divorced, autistic American editor, she’s relocated to the wilds of Yorkshire to claim her dilapidated, possibly haunted, family estate. When the gardener ends up on her rug with three bullets in him, Jo is the obvious suspect. Jo has to clear herself of suspicion and she enlists the help of a local detective, an antique collector, and an innkeeper’s wife to find the real killer before he can strike again
