[Margaret Watkins · Rating 4 out of 5]

A highly suspenseful book, this story is pretty gruesome and dark but does come to a successful conclusion. I found it slow moving in parts, however, it would seem to fit the culture and background in which the novel is set. I personally found the story difficult to read and kept putting it down to go and do household chores when I hit the more tragic parts, a sure sign of the extent of the tension I was feeling. Certainly, this book is not for the faint of heart. I received this book for free from eBook Discovery. I voluntarily post this review. This is my honest review.

[Dianne · Rating 1 out of 5]

Thinly written mystery in the “puzzle with modest romance” genre. We do not become very involved with the characters, and the plot is not particularly engaging. Better than emphasis on blood and gore, but the sort of work one forgets as soon as the book is set down.
