My first thriller it was confusing but the end has a great twist.

Due to my fascination with Lizzie Borden, I was immediately drawn into the premise of this mystery: “At seventeen, Lenora Hope
Hung her sister with a rope

Stabbed her father with a knife
Took her mother’s happy life

“It wasn’t me,” Lenora said
But she’s the only one not dead”

As the story progresses there are some great twists but the ending goes overboard and there are too many inconsistencies. I would say 3.5 stars rounded up to 4 because I really enjoyed the gothic setting. Makes a good October pick.
