Wicked Autumn

Overall Wicked Autumn is a good book with excellent character development. I want to read more about Max Tudor and the village of Nether Monkslip...

Can you hear the “but” coming?

...buuuuuut, compared to her three previous St. Just books (Death of a Cosy Writer, Death and the Lit Chick, Death at the Alma Mater) it fell short in the actual mystery department. The St. Just books rate high on my list of favorite mysteries, and Wicked Autumn is still a fun read. It's just not the same quality, plot-wise, as the other three.

I would highly recommend the St. Just books and save this one for reading a chapter at a time right before bed. Or on a rainy afternoon with tea and scones.
