Things I liked:
– From a historical perspective, I really thought this story hit the injustice and brutality of the period
– The main characters are likable
– The mystery kept me guessing

Things I didn’t like:
– Slow pace
– I didn’t feel like there was enough chemistry between the main characters
– I found the ending unsatisfying in more than one way
– The audiobook narration was not my favorite

Recommended for those looking for a historical court room drama that takes its time and has some open ends.

⭐⭐⭐½

I’m definitely in the mood for some killer hist fic, but this just didn’t quite do it for me.

Thanks for reading!
