    Dreadful
    I admit I am not a big fan of Gothic mysteries but, it did sound interesting so decided to give it a read. I found the characters poorly developed and unlikable. The amount of time spent on sex, drinking wine, vomiting and the smell of sweat was totally off-putting and if eliminated would cut the book down to a fraction of the 309 pages. I slogged through this hoping for a revelation and resolution that did not happen. Hours I cannot get back.
