Reseñas de la Crítica

"Utterly gripping, taut and powerful. An emotionally charged, compulsive, moving novel." (Adele Parks)

"Captivating and suspenseful." (Jessica Fellowes)

"I so enjoyed it. Twists and turns.... Hours of gripping entertainment and a great many tears." (Lesley Pearse)

such a good story but needs your attention!

Extremely good story & great characters with many twists. its a story which you need to know how it ends.

Fantastic mystery story, wonderful characters, very moving.

I have read two of Emily Gunnis’ books now. First I read The Girl in the Letter, then read The Missing Daughter and have pre-purchased The Midwife’s Secret due to be released 10/28/21. I can’t get enough of her books! Well researched historical settings that toggle from past to present, gripping complex mystery and heartwarming and compelling characters. You won’t go wrong to purchase any of her books!

compelling story of love and consequences

I found the story especially at the end a bit hard to follow with the many characters involved. but the narration was very good and the plot compelling. makes one give thought on to why we cling to the past and how best to forgive yourself for the choices you make.

it was a beautiful, sad, heart breaking story. hard to follow until you figured it out. I had to start it over 2 or 3 times.

hard to follow to much bouncing around to keep straight. other than that once I figured out who was whom I loved it and wasn't ready for it to end

Historic fiction that is finally real

I really like the strong female characters in this novel. Being able to catch up on the work of Emily Gunnis is always a pleasure, thank you.
