A Duty to the Dead by Charles Todd
4.0
I received this book via a Goodreads giveaway courtesy of William Morrow.
I don't know what it was about this book but I started reading the ebook and couldn't get past the first chapter but once I won the paperback and started reading it that way it was so much easier and I really really enjoyed it!
Bess Crawford is a very strong female character. I love that even though what she was doing wasn't what she should've been doing she kept at it anyway, even with her misgivings. She did what was right even though everyone would say what she was doing was wrong and to leave off it.
The supporting characters in this book were also very good and I never had that thought that I sometimes get where this is a pointless character they add nothing to the story what are they doing here?
The setting was very well described I could envision the places and see them in my head and there was no getting into too much pointless detail which I really appreciated. To me there is nothing worse then over describing things.
This book definitely kept me on my toes. I was constantly wondering what was going to happen next, what did Arthurs message mean, and what, exactly, were the Grahams hiding with such ferocity? The ending did leave me a little sad but I got over it pretty quickly. I can't wait to see what Bess Crawford gets into next!!
