Asesinato en la Bastilla

The blend of real Parisian history with fiction adds depth, and I wonder what inspired her to set the story during the Bastille's era.

The suspense built up nicely at the start, but the middle felt a bit slow — was that intentional to build atmosphere or a pacing choice?

It added emotional layers, but sometimes it felt like it overshadowed the mystery. Did others find it enhancing or distracting?
