Mystery at The Blue Sea Cottage

3.5 - A roaring 20s true crime story? I was immediately intrigued! I feel like I've heard about Fritzie Mann somewhere before, but I could be confusing her story with someone else's.

First off, I have to say kudos to James Stewart and his dedication to the research. He took a good look at every angle of the puzzle, putting them together and speculating what might have happened. The pictures were also a great addition. As for the writing, it dragged in places for me and I didn't feel my interest consistently held, but there were some interesting bits that made up for the others. Overall, a good true crime read, especially if you like the pre-forensic era and speculation.
