I think it's safe to say that the author has found her feet in the era between WWI and WWII. I'm something of a history buff and it's a real joy to read a novel set in this era. It was a time when women who went against society's accepted mores for them struggled for acceptance.
I don't want to spoil the ending, but I will say that by having all the bad guys turn out to NOT be red herrings was a stroke of genius. I look forward to the next book.
