There have been some wonderful mentions of Death Sets Sail and the Murder Most Unladylike series while I’ve been away – and I think one of my very favourites is this absolutely incredible article about the series by Anannya Baruah.
It’s a long read, and I think a very worthwhile one. Anannya gets into so many of the themes and ideas I wanted to explore in the books, and I feel so honoured that she sees the series in such a complex and interesting way. She writes so beautifully about the series ending, too – I got a bit teary more than once!
“It feels strange to say goodbye to Wells and Wong at a time when a global pandemic has changed everything about the world as we used to know it, but I also envy anyone—young or old—who picks up these books for the first time.”
