(4.5) I would've given this sequel to [b:The Gilded Hour|24611868|The Gilded Hour|Sara Donati|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1425245254l/24611868._SY75_.jpg|44222986] five stars, except that it had a bit too many "newspaper clippings" and the side story with Elise diluted the main plot, in my opinion. Maybe she'll be given equal billing in the next book and that will make more sense? I just want more Anna and Sophie, personally, and there is more of the latter in this book than in the first of the series! The ongoing mystery from the The Gilded Hour is brought to a close and I like the element of suspense that the Detective Sargeants bring to this series. I look forward to reading the next one when it's ready!
