Why read it?

1 author picked A Killer in the Crystal Palace as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

I am always on the lookout for historical mysteries with strong female leads. When I discovered Marlowe’s Kier and Levitt series, I was all in. The female main character has it all–brains, wealth, and beauty.

She has also endured enough hardships and setbacks to make her relatable to the reader. I could not help but cheer Kara onwards as she kept the male lead on his toes while solving the crime.
