Thanks so much Dirk, I really appreciate the honest feedback. I’m especially glad the mystery within the mystery and the historical layer worked for you, because that was a big part of what I wanted the story to become. I also wanted the South African coastal setting and atmosphere to feel different from the usual crime thrillers, so hearing that came through means a lot.
And honestly, hearing that you “just kept reading” is probably the best compliment a mystery writer can get
