Узкая дверь

What a great way to start the new year. This is the third in a series, but I didn't know that before I was kindly given the #alc from #netgalley (a thousand thanks - it was brilliant!) and honestly it didn't detract from my enjoyment at all.

The narrators of this audiobook are sublime, they brought the characters to life - a bumbling yet loveable old professor stuck in his ways, and a feisty, fiercely intelligent trailblazer of an antiheroine that you will love despite yourself.

This is a mystery spanning two timelines about the disappearance of a boy back in 1971 and the discovery of a body in 2006 at a prodigious private school. It was riveting, haunting (sometimes down right spooky) beguiling and beautifully written. Highly recommend. I'm going to find the first two in the series now and savour them like a fine wine.
