I have a mixed review on this book. I really enjoyed the writing style and found it really easy to get into, however I just found the whole book too easy. Everything just fell into Graces hands too matter of fact and didn’t keep you in suspense at all. No hint that something could go wrong or that she was going to get caught, the fact she was imprisoned for something she didn’t do but miraculously got off jail time for a bit of evidence yet killing 5 people no evidence was left? Bit far fetched for my liking.

The ending really pissed me off to be honest - classic male heroism coming in at the end taking the icing on the cake and the whole fortune with it, absolute wanker.
