A Great Find!!!

I bought this book on high recommendations from mystery booksellers and found it one of the most captivating books I've ever read. Ms. Woodward possesses a writing style that is both fluid and efficient. Not a word goes wasted here. Going back and forth in perspectives from that of the victims' family member and the memoirs of the alleged murderer, the story peels away the fabric of an ldyllic life in Alabama to reveal a shallow facade shocking in its ugliness. The writing is wonderful and the characters believable. Not since Scott Turow's Presumed Innocent have I been so moved by the emotions of the characters and so absorbed by an irresistibly southern-gothic plot. I can hardly wait to dig into the few other books Ms. Woodward has written, and I hope she has plans to pen many, many more.
