"The Devil’s Crossroads has a cast of characters as varied and wickedly exciting as Agatha Christie has ever created. It is an elaborate scandal-mongering novel, filled with strange and bloody history during a time when greed and violence reigned along the Delmarva-Peninsula, where slavery was vogue. The Devil’s Crossroads provides enough thrills to satisfy readers who enjoy accounts of historical stories that are unusual and exciting."
