I love a good mystery. All the better when there are moments of suspense and when there are reveals one after the other. In A Pretender’s Murder by Christopher Huang, we get just that. Eric is, was, a soldier in the Great War, a war that he and millions of others are still reeling from seven years later. And as he pieces his life back together, he finds himself with a new job in a gentleman’s club as the secretary, the old one gone after a murder. And yet only weeks into Eric

Okay, first things first. I read this book for a book club I am a part of and I am so glad that I did. It was funny and cringey in all...
