Dixie Darling said Excellent book!. After reading The Widow, I knew the authors next book would be as good. It was very intriguing and kept you up reading relentlessly. You will never know the ending until the very very last and proved as good as the first book.. "Another great read" according to Kindle Customer. Equal parts mystery and drama, this story I did not want to put down. The personalities of the characters came to life as well as their personal journeys. Individual stories of angst and bravery, showing how some childhoods never leave.. Delivered at full term An intense and coiled plot with deeply flawed and human characters. I am in awe of how much power Barton wrings from plain language.
