2022 book 129

 Katherine Addison's The Witness for the Dead

I like that Addison returned to the Goblin Emperor world by focusing on one of the minor characters from that book and giving him a spin-off. And he’s a great and interesting character, solving various mysteries through being able to talk to the dead (and general investigative skills). I also like that there are a variety of mysteries to keep things moving, as well as a growing friendship (or moooooore?) with the director of an opera company. I enjoy reading about the clearly depressed protagonist begrudgingly accepting friendship and kindness. And catching killers! Good times!
