The Chimney Sweeper's Boy by Barbara Vine

4.0

I'm not really sure what I expected of this book, but in the end I was pleased. Its reads a little like a family saga, even though it isn't one. The mystery is intriguing but doesn't consume the book. It really was enjoyable to read. My only complaint is that I figured out most of the answers too long before they gave them to me in the book. Sometimes this adds to the suspense but since this isn't a 'high-stakes' mystery (no one's life is really in danger or anything) it just made me sort of annoyed.
