THis is the second book I've read by Greg Olsen and it was very well written. He presents the story from several perspectives and even attempts to make the "black widow" sympathetic -- to some degree :) I got a kick out of his subtle barbs about her behavior and attitudes. It was very well researched and all the people in the story seemed real to me. Another great job by Gregg Oleson. If you haven't read Starvation Heights, you should take a look.
