This book was such a page turner, couldn't put it down or stop thinking about it. The mystery was always so high and so much interesting things got uncovered. Didn't see most coming at all. 
Nella was a great character to follow but I enjoyed Johannes more, Marin too though and Toot, all of them were good lol.
For my first proper historical fiction it was a great start in the genre.
