This is not an author I'm familiar with or a criminal case I've heard anything about. However the author appears to be a specialist in her own field, so I'm sure this will be just as well researched and well regarded as her previous books. I like the first impression and how the storyline and era is set. The writing style seems easy to read and I expect it to be a gripping, interesting read. I do like the cover, but on first glance the image and title make me think it's fictional rather than fact.
