I had never read any of Juliette Faraday’s work, but after reading The Detective’s Shadow I will be looking to read more from this talented author.There is nothing cliché about this murder mystery and it was not at all what I expected. The classical elements of a mystery are there,  reminiscent of Agatha Christie and with all the suspense of Daphne du Maurier, but this book has so much more. The main characters get more than they bargained for when they begin their work together solving the case of a possible murder and their journey together is poignant and healing, steeped in the mysteries of their own separate pasts. All told, this is a mystery that is utterly refreshing and captivating on many levels.The story line and mystery being solved in this book is a classic “who killed the rich guy?” The author kept me guessing around every turn and I liked being kept hanging. The supporting characters and subplots in this mystery were compelling and well-written.Thank you, Juliette Faraday, for an enjoyable and refreshing read. I hope to read more of your work in the future.
