I was gifted this book and wanted to write an honest review. This book has both pros and cons to it. First of all, Ward does a fantastic job of describing the settings throughout the story. I can almost picture it in my mind. Also, the plot line is pretty solid, it’s a good story that cozy readers will enjoy. However, I did have some issues with the book. One thing I noticed was that it seemed as if Ward was trying too hard to make Penelope quirky. For me, that was distracting me from the story. Also, there were a few times that there were gaps in the storyline, that caused me some confusion . Overall, this book is a solid 3.5 stars and I look forward to reading more of this author’s work.
