A Test of Wills by Charles Todd

3.0

I love historical mysteries, so I picked this book up to fulfill the "book by two authors" box on my challenge.

I liked the character of Ian Rutledge. I thought the voice of Hamish in his mind is a unique device. I found myself being brought down a lot--Ian isn't a villain and I felt bad for him being tormented as he was.

I thought there were a lot of characters in this book and that it was slow paced. The ending had a good twist. I had guessed about the love arc, which is interesting because I'm usually oblivious. I don't know if I'll pick up another one of these books. This one was a little too dark for me.
