Took me quite a while to get into it but I enjoyed it once I did. It‘s a slow burner and the style of writing is pertinent to the era it‘s set in. It‘s atmospheric and creepy with a hint of the supernatural. An interesting narrator who really grew into his character by the end of the tale. I liked him! There‘s an intriguing plot with a few twists and turns which kept me turning the pages. All in all an absorbing historical mystery and debut. 3.5⭐️
