Exceptionally good read! So many aspects of this book to love and enjoy! The little comments by the narrator scattered throughout are delightful. Chloe is a 'woman of a certain age ' and we other women of a certain age appreciate a main character who embraces it even though there are "subtle changes imposed by time"... we still enjoy the mental exercise involved in solving a puzzling tale like this mystery! If you're young you'll love the mystery as well! I recommend this book and hope there'll be more in the series!
