I stumbled upon this author, not knowing much about her style or her books. Just picked up one of hers one day because I liked the cover. I don't remember much about that book, only that I liked it and decided to get more on PBS. This recent one-although took me longer to finish than most other books, was amazing. Mystery, Romance, History...all of it. I admit I have overlooked this author, but I plans to check out more of her work. If you are a first time reader of Carol Goodman-this book should have you wanting more. Amazing!

This was my second book by Goodman and I found it as engrossing as the first. It was hard to put down and I hid away to finish it.

I read this book after reading her previous novel, The Lake of Dead Languages. I found this one even more of a page turner, good complex mystery story with some mythical elements mixed in.

Very fast, intriguing read. I only wish that I could read the mother's stories, too!

A compelling story about the roles stories play in our lives. A great read!
