Ethel isn't sure, nor is she happy when she's left alone to care for Ernest's estate. Was her brother the victim of sweet, little Dolly Arsenault, or is some other sinister force at work?

Editorial Review S. Peters Davis
Ms. Hawkins’ novel is part of the Canadian Historical Mystery series. From the first sentence, the story pulled me into the lives of those fascinating historical characters and surrounding scenes. Her descriptive wordage and captivating characters stimulate the mind, making me feel as though I were right there, inside the pages, witnessing it all play-by-play.
As I delved into the story, my anticipation was met with a continuous stream of satisfaction, never once leaving me disappointed as I eagerly turned the pages.
Twice Hung is the first book I’ve read written by Vanessa C. Hawkins, and it will not be the last book I read by her. If you enjoy historical mysteries, place Twice Hung on your books-to-be-read list. It’s a keeper.
