I'm no sure if this was ACTUALLY a five star book or if I just feel that way about it because it was exactly what I wanted to be reading right now. Set in Chamonix 1910, a cold-case (literally) and a "suffragette sleuthess" gets caught up in the past and present to unravel a good puzzle of a mystery. A range of characters that I really enjoyed and a nuanced aromantic feminism.
Agatha Christie without the problematic aspects. Every time I picked this book up I just wanted to keep reading it instead of going out to parties or whatever (so I read it on the bus).
I'm going to make sure to read more of the Nell Bray mysteries.
