Sara Kay et la croix d'ivoire

The cozy yet suspenseful atmosphere really brought the story to life. I'm curious if real places influenced the setting or if it was purely fictional.

Sammy's witty remarks and lighthearted moments made the story so engaging without undermining the suspense. Is humor a common feature in middle-grade mysteries for others too?

Her sense of justice and curiosity really stood out. I wonder if the author based her on someone she knew or if it was entirely fictional.
