The Death of Mrs Westaway - Ruth Ware

Hal is struggling to make things meet, working as a tarot card reader in Brighton she returns alone each night to her cold small flat, and is trying to hide from the landlord.  She opens a formal letter to let her know that she has been given an inheritance and must go to the Cornwall family home to find out what she gets. 

I don't know about this one, I felt it plodded along and promised thrills and mystery but somehow failed to deliver and I was a bit bored. 3/5

How. Disappointing. Our review stated out making me want to read it but I do dislike weak endings

It does sound a promising premise, but then many books start out that way.
