One of the best so far. Enjoyed the Titanic angle. However! Second book in a row with the abrupt ending with far too many loose ends not resolved. I had immediately started this one after the last cliff-hanger, but all I received for my trouble was a brief reference but no relief. Then it happens again. I love Rutledge so will keep reading but some of those earlier loose ends better be resolved eventually.

For fans of Deanna Raybourn's Killers of a Certain Age series or Richard Osman's Thursday Murder Club. Mrs. Blossom is a delight on her big London/Paris/Seine cruise trip despite the murders that pile up, there is flirtation, self-realization, and lots of fun.

This stand alone novel of Eskens is his best I've read so far of the ones I have read. Alternating between contemporary Minnesota and the Bosnian genocide at the hands of the Serbs in the 1990s, I needed to step away at times from my reading but the never stopped reading. Highly recommend. I wish my review did better justice to this book.

Not as familiar with Clytemnestra going into this book as I've been about some of the other mythological characters covered in books such as Stone Blind (Medusa) or A Thousand Ships (Troy) by Natalie Haynes. Fascinating tale with more characters to follow-up on such as her daughter, Electra.
