MY THOUGHTS -
Very well done! This story earned my interest right away and kept it all the way through. It was very suspenseful and a little sad in parts, but kept me wanting to read.
I love that is was a historical mystery (1800's, set in Chicago). I always love a good historical story!

The character development was done very well. I really grew to know and like most of the characters (some you weren't suppose to like). The author stayed true to the historical time period. The characters really felt like they were from the 1800's. I also love books with a strong positive female lead and this one had that! Cady was awesome :-)
Just tiny parts of this book were a little slow, that's why the four stars instead of five, but for the most part - a very good read!

This is the first book I have read by this author. I am sure I will read more! I had no idea that this was the third book in a series, but that didn't seem to affect me. I was fine reading it, I didn't feel like I was missing anything and I wasn't confused. 
Pssst - I liked the cover too!

Thank you "Reading Addiction Virtual Book Tours" for sending my this book for my honest review!
