A review by lesliellama
Widows by Lynda La Plante

4.0

Got this novel as part of a mystery box. Really glad I did, as I probably wouldn’t have picked it up on my own.

A good fun heist with some less than easy at times female friendships, Widows was a joy to read. The overly stereotypical portrayal of cops was a bit of a detractor, but I liked to gradual build up to the heist. Also not leaving a happy ever after immediately following the robbery was a good choice, as it allowed for a touch more realism and time to close out some important plot points.
