A super fun mystery that kept me guessing throughout. Recommended to me by my eldest daughter (who pretty much only picks books with MURDER in the titles, my forensic science girl!!), I really enjoyed this change of pace for me. A young woman gets a message to meet her rich and eccentric great aunt, skipping over her mom for the aunt's inheritance. Her great aunt has been convinced she (the great aunt) will be murdered ever since a fortune told to her when she was young predicted her death. So, before the niece can get there, guess what happens?
Yep.
Cue all the usual suspects and secondary characters who could all very well be guilty, including the niece herself who stood to inherit everything. Lots of twists and turns here, and while it is marked as the first in a series, my daughter and I both felt like this one was enough really. For fans of The Thursday Murder Club and How to Age Disgracefully. Not that this one had only elderly characters, but the tone was so fun!
