   When Camden McTavish is called back to his adoptive family's estate in North Carolina to sort out financial matters, his wife is eager to see his family's home and experience the wealth she never had. But all the family secrets will be laid bare, and more than one McTavish will end up dead, just like his mother, Ruby McTavish's four husbands.
   While I saw some twists coming, others surprised me. I like how the book was paced as it kept me engaged. As well as the mix of narrative POVs, letters, and articles.
   The characters weren't particularly likable, but just likable enough for you to care about them.

 Narrator(s) Rating: 5 stars
  The narrators did an excellent job, and the constant change of narrators as you went from each part kept me engaged instead of my attention wandering.

 

Extra ratings:  Fluff-NA  Heartfelt-3/5   Helpful-NA    Horror-NA   Inspiration-NA   Love aka Romance-1/5  Mystery-2/5    Predictability-1.5/5  Spice-0/5   Suspense-3/5   Tear- 1.5/5  Thrill-4/5   Humor-2/5
