Review: Betrayal at Blackthorn Park by Julia Kelly (book 2 of the series)

Betrayal at Blackthorn Park is an Agatha Christie style historical fiction that will keep you on your toes. 

Evelyne Redfern has just finished her training with the SOE and is sent on her first mission. It is supposed to be a straightforward in and out type of mission until she happens upon a murder. Evelyne and her handsome colleague, David Poole, are teamed up yet again to solve the mystery, but it’s not going to be so easy. 

I thoroughly enjoyed this mystery. The WWII setting sets the stakes and allowed me to get away into a different era for a time. Kelly also used her short chapters and intrigue to draw me in and keep me reading well past my bedtime. 

Thank you to St Martin’s Press and NetGalley for the advanced copy. All opinions are my own.
