I believe that I dislike this book as much as I love Devil in Winter. I came into the book absolutely certain that I would love it. I was wrong.
I just don't find Lillian to be likeable at all. I have no idea why she is obsessed with Rounders. She knows she shouldn't play and yet she does repeatedly out in the open. She has no regard for her safety or that of others. She knows her actions reflect on her sister who she says she loves, but she doesn't let that influence her actions. She physically fights with Marcus after she said she loved him. Marcus deserved someone with common sense and a consideration of others.
