My Review
Confessions to a Stranger is an intriguing novel with lots of twists and turns. I found the main characters to be likable and believable, which is always important to a good story.
Adaleigh is on the run from an abusive family member and hopes to hide in the little harbor town of Crow’s Nest. Of course, nothing works out the way she plans, and she soon finds herself in the thick of a murder mystery. Also, she’s not sure who she can trust as she gets to know the people in her new community.
If you enjoy cozy mysteries with a historical setting, I’d recommend Confessions to a Stranger.
