Review by Rochelle:
I
confess I’ve become a fan of Ms. Fairfax. Palace
of Deception at least the third book of hers I’ve read, and it has not
disappointed me. She also managed to surprise me. I expected a completely
different ending and was quite shocked when the truth was revealed, although
there was foreshadowing that I completely missed. I wonder if you’ll catch it.
I don’t want to say too much. I suggest you buy Palace of Deception. It’s a page-burning novella you can probably
blow through in one all-too-brief sitting.
