FIVE STARS
A Fatal Gilded High Note was a treat. I love the interactions between Val and Roddy DeVere. The world building in this is simply amazing, immersive and lovely.
(As per Book Sirens, I don't share spoilers)
This was a rollercoaster ride, like most of the series (although you can read this as a standalone, I'd start with one, "A Gilded Death".) I do enjoy how Ms. Tichi uses the extensive research of the time period to build the story. She surprised me with the progression of the story and the twist at the end. I wish Val was as much of a strong force as I remember from the previous, but, Roddy did take a bit more of a step forward in this.
All together, it is a great read, especially for fans of historical fiction and a good murder mystery!
(I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily with great honor and delight!)
