Long Black Veil by Jennifer Finney Boylan

This was a complex, character-driven novel full of suspense. After 35 years, the body of a young woman, one of a large group of friends, is found in the East State Penitentiary. This finding brings out long buried secrets that will shake all the characters to their core.

I did not love this book, but I didn't hate it either. The chapters, often organized by character, or sometimes, multiple characters, go to be too much. There were too many story lines to follow, for my personal taste, but it wasn't all bad. It was just suspenseful to keep me coming back for more.

Overall, I would give this book 3/5 stars. The story was good, but not great.

**I was given a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review by Blogging for Books.**
