Death of Mrs. Westaway by Ruth WareOn a day that begins like any other, Hal receives a mysterious letter bequeathing her a substantial inheritance. She realizes very quickly that the letter was sent to the wrong person—but also that the cold-reading skills she’s honed as a tarot card reader might help her claim the money.

Review:
Death of Mrs. Westaway was about a young woman who receives a letter for an inheritance that shouldn't be hers, and she decides to go and claim the money. What starts out as a deception soon turns into something more dangerous and deadly.
Out of all of Ruth Ware's novels that I have read to this date, this one was definitely my favorite. Unlike the first two novels I read of hers, In a Dark, Dark Wood and Women in Cabin 10, Hal isn't an unreliable witness and I found that I enjoyed her character more because of that. She also is a very strong character, and I was able to connect with her.
Like Ruth Ware's other books, I was able to figure out what the twist at the end was going to be, so it wasn't a shock when it was revealed. This is the one thing that always leaves me a little disappointed with her books because I would love for a twist that I don't see coming.
I would definitely recommend Death of Mrs. Westaway, if you are a fan of Ruth Ware's books and if you haven't read any of her books yet, and you love thrillers - I would probably start with this one because I consider it to be her best.
