Clocktower Elegy

by Ryann Fletcher

When mysterious murders in Verdance are drawing too much attention from the feds, and a suspect jumps county lines to flee downstate, Virginia is forced to face someone she’s avoided for decades - her mother.

Thrown into the small-town politics she’s always hated, Virginia is reminded of the one case she’s never solved.

The case that made her what she is - Juliette Ashling.

[Xiaoqing · Rating 5 out of 5]

Some books give me a strong hang over, the story lingering long after I finished reading and this one is exactly such book! I always love a story with flawed but likable characters and complicated love hate relationships and a twisty plot that keeps me guessing. This one has all of them and more, it is the combination of fantasy and mystery with a touch of romance. The writing is beautiful and poetic, the characters vivid and irresistible! Like in real life there is no absolute good and bad I like the subtle grey zone, especially regarding the MC's moral. Can't wait for the next book on the adventures of the strong, brave and smart women!
