The characters'voice are all the same and together with the naming I barely follow who is talking. The author manages to put together two genres, investigation and cosy - or low stakes -, that doesn't quite work for me. I need tension,I need to worry, but I am getting very bored instead🥱

I have 30 pages and it feels like I have read half of a book. The writing style is ornate, which I appreciate, but it is so tedious for a detective story. It lacks any emotion and tension. Besides the names are long and overly complicated, so I can't remember who is who or what is who. I struggled with this aspect also in the first books and there's no glossary
