Betrayal at Blackthorn Park

Betrayal at Blackthorn Park is the second book in the Parisian Orphan series. It is a cleverly written book for cozy mystery lovers with an intriguing whodunit drama filled story.

This story has everything for those mystery lovers who enjoy following the clues, trying to detect the red herrings and cheering for a plucky MC as she takes on a murder mystery.

I also was drawn into the building relationship between Evelyn and David. Will they stay in the “friend zone”? I’m not saying, but the quirky chemistry between them that adds humor to the story.
