Crow Court was a page turner for me! There are so many things that I enjoyed but I don't want to give anything away. So we will start with this. There are a lot of characters and a lot of layers but everything and everyone is tied in some way. The writing is really good. The details of the area and the dialect were done really well but also it was really interesting. The author takes a few genres of mystery, historical romance and a touch of humor here and there and blends them together wonderfully! Overall a really good read!
Thank you Random Things Tours and Andy Charman for sharing this great book with me!

Set in Dorset during the Victorian era, this tale centres around the murder of a choirmaster. It chronicles the lives of those connected to this event in fourteen different interlinked chapters. These chapters are almost short stories in themselves.

I thought this was a very clever book. It’s beautifully written in different styles throughout, for example, it begins with a section written in short, choppy sentences and there’s another section written in the local Dorset dialect. This in no way detracts from the story, but rather adds to the whole ambience. It’s a very absorbing tale and I was completely immersed in the lives of all the characters. And what an array of colourful and believable characters there are! The amount of research that has gone into this novel is admirable. The author has done a great job in creating the wonderful world of Crow Court. I’ll never look at a corvid in quite the same way again!

A fabulous piece of historical fiction. It was a joy to read it!
