One of the twistiest-turniest crime thrillers I‘ve ever read. Could not see what was coming next! This plot line took such a precise amount of finesse. Just when you think you have the story solved, you start finding yourself thinking “What?! HOW!” A very entertaining quick read.

Part 2 of the review: The kidnapping of not only escaped slaves but freed men and women who were sold in the south. It all happened in southern Illinois and so many, Illinoisans especially, know very little about this part of the states history. An interesting book.

A story centered around a house that a great many people may have visited when they were young. The Old Slave House in Equality in deep southern Illinois. The house itself is more folklore than fact. Not the man who owned it, John Hart Crenshaw was not. This is the story of slavery in Illinois, and the salt industry that utilized that labor. And the dark story of the Reverse Underground Railroad. Part 1 of the review

1. I don't often go on picnics, but I'd take either hard-boiled eggs, deviled eggs, or an egg salad sandwich. Homemade iced tea to drink.

2. The tagged book 📖

Mehso-so

I know I‘m in trouble when I read the first chapter and I already don‘t like one of the main characters. This was just a meh for me. Twist wasn‘t too hard to figure out. Blah blah blah.

SilversReviews So good!! 2w

Det. Harriet Foster wades through her own intense grief to solve a string of strange & brutal murders. New colleagues, racism, sexism & personal trauma don‘t hold this strong woman back when there‘s a killer to catch. Good twist near the end. Liked the audiobook narrator. Looking forward to next book in this series. #mystery #serialkiller #5stars
