A very moving and emotional novel but it creeps up on you and builds as it goes. I ended up caring about the characters but yet a huge amount of time wasn't spent telling you everything about them. You learned about the character of the characters by what they lived through and how they responded. Isn't that how you learn about people in your life? No one writes a novel and gives it to you to tell you how people's minds work. You see what a person is like by their actions. I really enjoyed this book.


The Devil in the White City: Murder, Magic, and Madness at the Fair that Changed America

A great book! Very interesting and informative about this period of time in our country - especially in Chicago. Larson does a great job of weaving the two story lines together. An incredible amount of research had to be done on both subjects. I thoroughly enjoyed this book.

I've read all of Steve Martini's books. This one was one of his best. It was a great legal thriller that kept you guessing until the very end.
