Set in 1876, San Francisco. A young woman named Jenny is shot dead through the window of a railroad saloon. We follow survivor, and friend Blanche Beunon, who will risk anything to bring Jenny's murder to justice.
This book was definitely a cover buy when I bought it almost a year ago. The synopsis, to me, sounded very interesting. When I finally decided to pick it up I was not very impressed. The chapters were too long, and sometimes pretty confusing. I really liked Jenny and Blanche was an OK character but basically all the other characters I didn't like.
There was also a scene in this which made me feel really mad and made me put down the book for a bit. (I won't say what it's about because it could be considered as a spoiler.) I guess it was an okay book, but it just wasn't put away for me.
I personally can't give this more than 3/5.
