I thought I would love this book, based on the highly rated reviews on Amazon. I found the character of the husband-murder suspect annoying, to say the least. His mother Elenor never has a positive thing to say about anyone other than her son. Why the husband, on trial for the murder of his mistress, would agree to have his wife defend him is beyond me. It didn’t make sense that the sheriff allowed the attorney for the defendant to be a part of the murder investigation. The ending was not surprising. Did I hate this book? No I wouldn’t say that. However, it took me way too long to get through this book. It just was not a good book.
Star Rating: ⭐⭐1/2
