Why read it?

1 author picked The Malvern Mystery as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

I have always enjoyed Victorian mystery novels, and the Malvern Mystery ticks all my boxes: mystery, intrigue, a dash of humor, atmosphere, and some quirky historical facts. I liked the fact it was set in a specific area–Malvern in Herefordshireand had stunning descriptions of the town and the area, and included aspects of the supernatural as well as contemporary events.

I l liked the fact the characters were well defined, with a strong female lead without diminishing the male characters. I especially liked the emphasis on the unusual angles of history and the interwoven superstition and Victorian modernity. 

From Malcolm's list on British Victorian crime.
