A review by mimima
The Hangman's Beautiful Daughter by Sharyn McCrumb

4.0

Another one that could do with a half star. However, what I loved about this book was that it wove in Shakespeare, the Irish heritage of Appalachia, and the ballads that nurture the area so beautifully. In a lot of ways it reminded me of "Christy" - it's not necessarily a compelling story, but a compelling setting and characters. The mystery is, quite frankly, a sideline.

I look forward to reading more of her novels.
