I LOVED this one! Told from the perspective of one of the seniors ten years later, after he is released from jail. This book really covered all it's bases and then some. Intrigue? Suspense? Lovable characters? Pacing? Well written plot twists? Non-cheesy use of Shakespeare? It made me feel all my emotions. I know I'll be looking forward to any books by this author in the future. Highly recommend.
