This short story starts with quite the first line:
The blood splatter on the altar wasn’t the only sign that everything wasn’t right.
This is the first I have read by Tara Lyons and this short story gives us a taste of what she can write. I hope to read some of her full- length novels sometime!
The only negative for me was that I wanted to get to the ‘meat’ of the story, which did not happen until the wedding day. Despite being a short story, it did drag a little for me. I think I wanted to know what the crime was. And I did not see that ending coming, it was quite unexpected!
