[Rebecca · Rating 4 out of 5]

I thought the twists in this were pretty good, as I considered first one person & then another as possible guilty parties. The ending was perhaps a little too neat, with the guilty parties all dying. It's a good series tho. This author should've been more popular--under both her names.
