Review # 1 was written on 2013-04-12 00:00:00 John Madame Marie Lightfoot is a true crime writer. Her latest book is about a minister who is convicted of murdering his wife to be with his lover. Marie isn't convinced she has the whole story and still digs into the case after the first draft of her book is finished. She also ends up looking into the case of a man on death row who the minister was trying to free. The book at first alternates between Marie's book and events in "real life". Then it switches entirely to Marie's investigation. I enjoyed the mystery and the twists and turns. According to goodreads I read the first book in this trilogy back in 2008 but I don't remember it so I might reread it soon.

Review # 2 was written on 2018-09-21 00:00:00 John Hayes Interesting premise of a story within a story. True crime writer tells the story of the book she has written about a horrific murder and then there is first person narrative of the writer's personal life. Makes for a great read and a very quick read.
