Welcome to Litsy!

Picked this out for #bookedintime and overall found it super frustrating - thwarted aristocrat down on her luck with a useless husband on the wrong side of the civil war becomes a highwaywoman sounds like it‘s going to be epic; but it just wasn‘t. Kate was enfuriating a lead with almost no personal growth, there was some cheating which I don‘t much love and a real surprising lack of action

For me this book was not as good as it could have been. So I was a bit dissapointed.
I think I expected a bit more action in a book about highwaymen/women

Admittedly, I'd have liked a bit more swashbuckling (I always want more swashbuckling), but this is a solid historical drama. Twists galore, great female characters, Civil War intrigue too.

Got this solely because it promises me a highwaywoman. We need more of those. Stand and deliver.
