My rating: <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/2974488291">4 of 5 stars</a><br /><br />
I received a complimentary copy of this book through Netgalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.<br />Lucy Blunt is in prison and sentenced to hang for double murder. The story is told from her perspective as a maid in a new household, her role as companion to the Mistress of the house, then finally as a prisoner for a crime she claims she didn't commit.<br />Really good historical crime fiction. I really didn't like Lucy's character at the beginning, but the flashbacks to her past and the way she's treated by the other servants made me see her in a different light.
