2 posts | 2 read | 1 to read
London, 1896. Madame Tussauds opens to find one of its nightwatchmen decapitated and his colleague nowhere to be found. To the police, the case seems simple: one killed the other and fled, but workers at the museum arent convinced. Although forbidden contact by his superior officer, Scotland Yard detective John Feather secretly enlists The Museum Detectives Daniel Wilson and Abigail Fenton to aid the police investigation. When the body of the missing nightwatchman is discovered encased within a wax figure, the case suddenly becomes more complex. With questions over rival museums, the dead mens pasts and a series of bank raids plaguing the city, Wilson and Fenton face their most intriguing and dangerous case yet.

Another historical crime fiction from this private investigatiors duo, Abgail and Daniel. A murder occurs at Madame Tussauds and they are called in to figure out who was the culprit. I enjoy this series and look forward to find out which museum will be next.

Mehso-so

Full disclosure, this is the sixth installment in a series I haven‘t read. But I honestly don‘t think my opinion would change if I had read the prior ones. This was more between a so-so and a pan for me. Set in late 1800s London, Daniel (a former Scotland Yard detective) & Abigail (a renowned Egyptologist) are private detectives who live together. I was rather skeptical about that for the time period. While the writing was OK (a bit simplistic) 🔻

robinb and the plot was OK (a bit complicated and unbelievable in some spots), it was how Daniel took center stage with Abigail playing more of a minor role that bugged me. She should have been off excavating (what she loved) rather than playing house with Daniel and serving as his sidekick. 🤷🏻‍♀️ 3/5⭐️ 3y
