Lizzie Borden Novel: Maplecroft by Cherie Priest

So far, so good. Lizzie Borden is a monster killer, protecting sister Emma from strange beasts with her iron hatchet. I am enjoying the story and author Cherie Priest’s take on the tale of Lizzie Borden, taking her to great heights of “nightmare and madness.”

Of particular interest to me, besides the use of Lizzie Borden in this fashion, is the backdrop of Fall River as the place where all mayhem takes place.

I must say it is a jolly good read thus far. More later as I get deeper into the story……
