"With beautifully drawn characters and a string of twists that will keep you guessing right up to the end." (Stylist)

Sad when this book ended

Loveeed it. I am so invested in these characters I miss them! Great read intertwined with an amazing history lesson for us all.

Very enjoyable story

Not the subject matter I generally choose but it was sensitively handled and a good story

Excellent

This is a great story. There are lots of strange happenings and a mysterious red haired woman. What does it all mean?
