These are so easy to read! This one was not quite as riveting as the last (didn't have to stay up til all hours of the night to finish), but just as enjoyable. Can't wait for #5 now!

I wavered between giving this 3 or 4 stars because, while I love the series and will definitely continue to read it, I did have some issues with this particular installment. It's fun to have the main characters working as spies for Cromwell, but the plot overall felt really rushed (especially the romance--having it proceed so quickly felt very untrue to Bridget's character). There were also a few moments where I found myself stopping to consider the plausibility of events, which is rarely a good sign in a mystery.
However, Thomas has clearly done his research again and one of the joys of this series is learning about a time period that relatively few other authors write about. I love Bridget and Martha and enjoy finding out what new troubles Thomas has decided to plague them with in each new entry in this series. Hence bumping this up to 4 despite my reservations!
