4.0

Deliciously dramatic and works so well as a work of suspense, but the gothic elements are so much more than set dressing. The characters and dynamics in this book are incredibly complex, and though the core mystery was solved in the end, I was left with more questions than answers about the psyches of our central characters (in a good way). Good stuff!!
