The Hangman's Daughter

Short Review: A historical mystery about the author's own ancestors from 17th century Germany. The mystery part wasn't bad. I am not the best judge of mysteries. I really don't like figuring out what is happening, I like it to unfold. I am a thriller/suspense fan, not really a mystery fan. The historical fiction part of the book bugged me. Because I don't know anything about 17th century Germany and this felt too much like a bad history reenactment with the main characters wearing watches. (Good guys were more modern and forward thinking, bad guys were superstitious and against change.) Not a bad beach read.
