Everyone around Harriet — from Harriet’s family down to the stage manager — has a motive to murder, if given the right opportunity.

This book has Rizzoli but no Isles but it still has the same kind of Gerritsen thriller.

Based on actual events, Sugar Money by Jane Harris introduces me to a history I did not know and brings to life yet another aspect of the brutality of slavery. The narrator's language scattered between French, English, and Caribbean Creole makes the book a challenge to read at times. The voice of an adolescent narrator also superimposes on the horror of slavery a certain innocence. It is an interesting contrast at times and accentuates the brutality when the descriptions do come.
