A fun romp and a quick read
Ms Sutton has gifted us with another delightful work.
Again, sadly, she sprinkles throughout the work words and phrases from the 2020s — (ie., to “drop” or release a new recording is definitely not ‘Post Great War’ English verbiage), but such just demonstrates how much we are a prisoner of our own time and culture.
And she rises above such small mistakes with the richness of the characters and the setting.
Dodo, still waiting for Rupert to “pop the question,” is embroiled in a murder on the infamous Isle of Dogs, and she manages to navigate through English and American jazz culture to track down the killer.
A must read.
