This is likely one of the earliest examples of cozy fantasy. The stakes are deliberately low, with little to no real peril. The plot revolves around a suspected theft at a fair, sparking an investigation that unfolds alongside an exploration of the characters’ relationships. A touch of magic weaves through the narrative, adding to its charm. The author aptly describes the setting as a “Gentle World,” perfectly capturing the book’s essence. If you’re in search of something truly cozy, this book is a great choice.
