5.0

This book had some elements of murder mystery, but it is more a combo of historical fiction and legal thriller. It's been a while since I've enjoyed a book in this genre, but I LOVED this one. A poignant and satisfactory conclusion. The representation of early American midwifery was a cherry on top.
