Chapelwood by Cherie Priest

3.0

The weirdest thing about this book (but not the Weirdest, because there's still a cosmic horror angle to it) is that it's a part of the Borden Dispatches, because when you get right down to it, Lizzie Borden isn't the main character here. She's a part of the story, yes, but the story isn't hers like Maplecroft was, and her character could have been pretty much anyone else and not affected the story at all. It's like the book was set in the same universe, but not in the same series. It's a shame, too, because the story is a good one, but it suffers from the slimmest of connections to the book that preceded it.
