All The Sinners Bleed ~ S. A. Cosby

 

****  Highly RECOMMEND 

Gritty and layered, never padded but so much detail.

Great sense of place with well developed characters.  This is fast moving, evil and believable.

I have so enjoyed all the Reese Bookclub choices but couldn't finish this drivel.

Loved to location and the time period and only wish that it had been stronger in the historical fiction area instead of the mawkish romance and repetitive supernatural element
