Praise for How to Seal Your Own Fate
"Along with strong emotional connections between characters on the page and with readers, the mystery is complex, and the clues plentiful, while the charming location and tight-knit community will encourage a cozy reread. The end is satisfying on multiple levels, including the promise of more mysteries to come. A perfect choice for readers of Agatha Christie and Alan Bradley's Flavia de Luce series."—Booklist (starred review)
