This was a really good read! I love the interaction of the 2 inspectors. They are such fun characters! The mystery kept me guessing to the end and I was still wrong. There are some gruesome elements, but not too bad or too often. I sincerely hope to see more of Frey and McGray in future books!
OMG! A cursed violin, witchcraft, superstition, An eccentric Scotsman detective, an uptight English detective, a gypsy physic and the plot just thickens! Oscar de Muriel has written one very entertaining mystery!
