I found this book to be thrilling! What great writing she does! I can't believe the murder /trial in this book really happened (with of course some embellishments by the author )..... I kind of want to find a book to read on the actual event.

I didn't want to like this book but it turns out I liked it better than expected. I think Julia is pretty stupid most of the time. She makes a stupid decision in having an affair and also saying she still loves her husband. I thought I had the killer figured out about halfway through the book and it turns out I was wrong! I would have never guessed that ending!

Wow. This book drew me in quick and I finished it in a little over a day! Henry seems pretty normal in the beginning, but at the end of the book, I had to wonder if the childhood trauma he experienced made him a bit crazy. I can't believe he got away with so many murders!
A good and quick read

I'm so happy with this ending! I'm so happy with who she ends up choosing, I was rooting for him in The Heir ☺. I'm also happy with how changed Eadlyn becomes.
Plus there is a small plot line that I would have never seen coming. I really saw no indication of it in either The Heir or this book
