I could not finish this silly novel. At first I found it amusing that in order to add some period tone to the book the author used the word "mayhap". A lot, over and over it shows up. It is so much of a distraction, that instead of enjoying the story, I found myself waiting for the next "mayhap". There is not much of a wait. The author must use "mayhap" on almost every page. I finally tossed the book in disgust, unable to finish. "Mayhap" the author should find a few different words.
