Welcome to Litsy!

I've really enjoyed every book by this author that I've read. Olive Martin killed her mother and sister and chopped them up. She never denied it. Rosiland is an author who has one last chance to turn in a book before shes dumped by her publisher. Her agent suggests revisiting this crime and this plot unfolds from there. Recommend

Such a good one!

Although I haven't seen the TV adaptation of this book, I can't imagine a better actress (Pauline Quirke) for the role of Olive Martin in today's #adventrecommends book. @emilyrose_x

'Even kindness is a struggle when you don't know where your next penny is coming from. Poverty is only uplifting when you can choose it.'
The Sculptress.

Olive Martin confessed to the grisly murders of her mother and sister years ago. Roz has been bullied by her publisher into writing a story about her. When she visits Olive in prison, she finds she likes her. Once Roz begins to investigate she realizes that no real effort was made to investigate once Olive confessed, nor was the lawyer any help. But Olive has made a habit of lying, and Roz will try to sort fact from assumption.

I had read this one a long time ago and had forgotten how many references to the Lizzie Borden murders there were. @Liberty have you read it?

So I'm not ready for sleep yet so I will turn to another suspense book. Evie chooses to sleep.

Should finish today. Looking forward to finding out what the hell happened!
