I’d definitely recommend this book for readers who love murder mysteries and lesbians and murder mysteries solved by lesbians. I imagine it’s to drum up interest in the next book, but it was still jarring to get to the end of the book without that kind of closure. The murder arc of the story was neatly tied up at the end in a plausible and satisfying way, but some of the personal elements weren’t quite resolved. Lots of murder mysteries don’t engage with the idea that the things characters go through scar them in significant ways. It also dealt with the after effects of the trauma that Sammy and Gina went through in the first book, which I thought was a nice touch. There was interpersonal drama without it becoming overwrought.
I appreciated the fact that Kate and Gina’s personalities were further deepened and complicated, as was their relationship. Under Parr is a cozy murder mystery in which the readers get reacquinanted with characters from the first book. *Note: I was provided with a free copy of the book by Ylva Publishing in exchange for a fair reviewīramhall’s second book in the Norfolk Coast Investigation series is just as pleasant as her first one.
