This is the second book by this author I have read by this author and I liked it a lot. I started another book by this author earlier this quarter but couldn't get into it, which is why I have finished a book in a while. I liked this book a lot. It was a murder mystery about a special healing doctor who was murdered. Because I read another book by this author and watch Desperate Housewives, I pretty much knew who committed the murder in the first couple of pages. By the end of the book, there were two murders and one attempted murder. I had a guess of who did all three of these things right after they happened. This book, you can tell, takes place in a very different time period, probably the 1920s. They have carriages and opium dens and lots of butlers and maids. Also, the wife of the doctor is addicted to morphine, which does not really happen anymore. People get addicted to different drugs now like nicotine and heroin. these probably didn't exist in this time period. The plot of the book became really messed up at times with everything getting tangled together. Like the other book, at the end , the author explains everything and everyone gets tangled together.
