Great book! Alan Bradley is a talented writer. I think I've read all he wrote and wish he'd written even more. This one, with Flavia de Luce again playing the lead role, came into here own as a "private eye" solving mysteries in her neighborhood. I felt a bit sorry that her father suffered from what could only be post traumatic stress following his time fighting in World War II. But Flavia showed herself to be independent and solved the mysteries in her area. Great writing!
