Blood & Sugar by Laura Shepherd-Robinson

adventurous challenging dark informative sad fast-paced

4.25

This is a fast-paced whodunnit with quite a convoluted plot (or plots really) set in the late 18th century.  Slavery features heavily and the author doesn't shy away from giving full details of the horrible lives they led and the things that white people did to them.  In fact the book is full of people doing nasty things (not just white on black).  A bit too over-dramatic for me (e.g. big storm coincides with the denouement near the end).
