My first book by WCS and may not be my last. At first I wasn't into it. Charlotte, our heroine, is a sop and she got on my last nerve. When the plot got underway she grew a bone structure and was less irritating. There isn't a whole lot of gore, violence or cruelty so I didn't have to skip or skim. I knew I was being set up for something, but I fell for some authorial misdirection and so even though it seemed contrived and almost out of nowhere, it worked. (
