The Poison Tree by Erin Kelly
4.0

The fifth chapter begins ..."I know that the most significant thing about the party is that I saw killer and victim together for the first time. But I'm afraid when I think about it I don't see it as a dark and portentous meeting of doomed souls".

And so the hints truth of what happened is revealed in glimpses and suggestions throughout the book. Its an enthralling read and even though I guessed who done it and the probable ending I had a thrilling time getting there. The portrayal of Biba is breathtaking. I think for a while I was in love with her myself.



A very entertaining read and I would definitely read an Erin Kelly again.
