Overall Impression

My overall impression of the book was that it was very interesting to read. I like all of the characters and I liked the setting. I loved the fact that Colburn died because that was a real shocker. I thought he would live and just go to jail. It also surprised me that Mr. Richmond was the one that shot Colburn. I really liked it and I would rate it very high. I would also recommend it to a lot of people.
