~*The Death of Mrs. Westaway by Ruth Ware*~

5 Stars I am one of those people that just does not get people that are not fans of Ruth Ware. I really do find her books to be so atmospheric. She really knows how to paint a picture. This was the best book I have read from her yet! Harriet (Hal) is in deep and she doesn't know how to get out of it. She has barely been able to keep her head above water since her death of her Mother. Hal makes her living the way her Mother did, doing Tarot readings on the pier. The problem is Hal owes a lot of money and loan sharks are at the door threatening her. Then one day out of the blue a letter arrives that could change everything. It seems that Harriet Westaway is an heir to an estate. Is she the Harriet Westaway they are looking for? Maybe not but after spending her whole life struggling she feels like maybe passing herself off as the proper heir is pretty much a victimless crime. A quick search shows that the Westaways have so much, she is certain that they could spare a little money....
