The Marsh King's Daughter by Karen Dionne
4.0

First book I've read in a while that I could not put down. The first twist is the fact that the story is not told from the villain's perspective, nor from the "initial" victim's perspective, but from the daughter's. The flashback scenes are woven in well, they keep the story moving, and they're well-spaced. Helena's trouble with socialization is believable once you know her background. A good read with enough suspense to keep you turning the pages!
