Murder in a Cape Cottage

This was my first read in the series, so there were a lot of characters to keep track of. I only got confused a time or two. I love the cold case trope which is why I started with this one. This wasn't my favorite with that trope as there wasn't enough research for my preference. However I can see some people thinking the investigation progressed more normally the way it was written. In the end the solution made me pretty sad.
