I received an advance reader's copy for free and this review is my honest opinion.

This was a wonderful fairy story. I love all the rules and games and trickery that come with involving fae, and I loved Winifred as the main character. The governess who can't stand children, and who is much more equipped for this mystery than we'd think.

I also just really love Mr Quincy.

That being said, I think the trigger warning at the beginning understates the scenes. The sexual harassment of the child ended up being more explicit than I anticipated based on that (there is kissing involved).
