A MADNESS SO DISCREET is a thrilling read! Mindy McGinnis shows us again that her prose is superb, and that her plot is a page turner. This title will make you think about its historical setting, and wonder what is right and what is wrong. For those who do not enjoy romance in books, this is the book for you! There aren't any romances, love triangles, or boys with piercing eyes. This book delivers on its premise rather than get lost in romantic subplots.

The only concern one should have with this title is the cover and what they might think they are getting. If you are looking for a psychological thriller, look elsewhere. If you are hoping for a deep study on the thin line between madness and reality, then this book isn't for you. If you enjoy reading about crime, then you might find a place here. If serial killers interest you, then this title features one. This novel is more of a crime thriller than the cover might lead you to believe.

I highly recommend this book to people that enjoy: historical fiction, crime thrillers, and Sherlock Holmes.
