Interesting story concept, can't agree with the book description that said 'gripping' though. It was slow-paced, ethereal. Thought it fell apart in the very end. Felt like she had a good thing going in the sense of how the main character felt inside, then just wrapped it up in a few last pages off on a tangent when she couldn't come up with a better ending. In fact the ending is confusing and not clear.
great read, love all of Grenville's Australia series.
