The Belvedere Murders

The setting feels so authentic and immersive—I'm curious whether the historical aspects were planned from the start or developed during writing.

While I loved the character interactions, the plot felt a bit slow at times. Was that intentional to build atmosphere or a pacing choice?

The small-town vibe really adds to the cozy feel, but I'm wondering if the author based it on a real place or created it from imagination.
