A wonderful page turner that will transport you

Published by Jenn , 2 years ago

The Hangman’s Daughter is a wonderful story of adventure, love, and mystery that totally engrossed me. It’s been a long time since I read a book that I could not put down, but this one has me not being able to wait to read the rest of the series!

Love this book series!

Quite the mystery read! An intriguing family with a unique family trade. I enjoyed getting to know each member and learning about the life of an executioner in old Germany.
