Thanks to Mike Hollow, Allison & Busby, and NetGalley for access to the Advanced Reader Copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Excellent.

This book is number nine in a series and takes place in London during the blitz. The detectives, who brought Endeavour and Inspector Morse to mind, work the Soho part of London to solve a murder. The dialog is spot on, the pacing good, and the story was enjoyable. Highly Recommended.

This uses the wartime element in this murder mystery perfectly, I was invested in what was going on and enjoyed the overall story being told. It uses the historical element in a way that worked overall and that the characters felt like they were supposed to. Mike Hollow has a great feel for the genre and the writing shows that. I was invested and wanted to read more.
