No Secret Like Nantucket

The Sweet Island Inn Series, Book 5

De: Grace Palmer

Narrado por: Susan Boyce

A secret bundle in a dusty corner sends the Benson family reeling.

It wasn’t meant to be uncovered. But when her son Brent stumbles across something curious hidden in the workshop, innkeeper Mae Benson must relive events she thought she had left thirty years in the past.

Her boyfriend Dominic is doing his best to help. But the arrival of a movie crew on Nantucket to film the adaptation of his latest novel has upended everything at the Sweet Island Inn.

And Mae’s children are just as preoccupied. Eliza, eight months pregnant, can’t be reached—and Mae is terrified that something is going wrong with the baby. Holly is dealing with an unexpected house guest with a grim and mysterious past. And Sara is struggling to answer a thorny question: who is stealing from her restaurant?

Follow along with the trials, tribulations, and triumphs of the Benson family in this sweet, wholesome women’s-fiction novel.

Family values

Too short. Ended too soon. Needed better ending. Good story line but lots of endings left hanging.

Very good

I do like this author overall.
I have enjoyed the series except for one, I think it was the third?
The narrator is excellent.
I would have given all five stars except I do not like The way the author has something important happen, but does not finish it in that chapter, and then goes on to other things, other things important that happened and doesn’t finish that chapter! You have to keep waiting, I don’t like that. Why not just keep going with the story?
I read the comments on the next book in the series, it sounds like a very depressing book, so I will skip on that.

Discrepancy between book number three and book number five.

Chapter 29 of book #3, No Wedding Like Nantucket has Brent and Rose getting married. But then in book #5, No Secret Like Nantucket, has Brent and Rose simply being boyfriend and girlfriend. That’s a pretty glaring discrepancy.
