The Kept by James Scott
3.0
This book isn't a page turner in the traditional sense. It's not fast paced.
Even in the beginning, a woman finds her family slaughtered. You learn a few surprises... It's slow moving.
I became engrossed because I kept wondering how it would all turn out.
The characters (even if they are in it briefly) are interesting.
Caleb and Elspeth are nuanced characters.
The ending probably cost it a half star or a full one.
But it's still good solid historical fiction.
