Another good cozy mystery featuring the 11-year old genius detective, Flavia d Luce.
In this story the precocious Flavia spends a lot of time in graveyards and crypts – places where she is quite comfortable, thank you. The story features dead bodies and chemistry of course. Additionally, the story of the de Luce family develops a bit further and we are left with tantalizing questions about the family's future and past.
Alan Bradley had some fun with the main mystery, giving it a nice Agatha Christie feel toward the end. All in all, a nice addition to the series.
