I won an advanced uncorrected proof in a First Reads Giveaway on Goodreads.
First off, I , did not realize this book was a sequel (to The Royal Wulff Murders: A Novel) but you won't find yourself lost if you start with this book (though it would probably be helpful to read the previous book to have more background on the characters).
I was intrigued by the plot in the beginning but somewhere in the middle I had lost interest. However, towards the end, the book had drew back my interest. The characters are well done and I particularly liked Martha and Harold.
I was not surprised by who the culprit was, but I did not expect the circumstances behind the murders. The references to the "Most Dangerous Game" were clever yet fuzzy for me since I haven't read it since I was a freshman in high school and only vaguely remember it. Also, the connection between the disappearance of the fishing flies and the murders was a nice touch as it was something that I had not expected to be related in the slightest.
My Verdict: Three stars out of Five
