The mystery takes place in the 1940s. We follow the story in real time as it takes place in the 40s and also in modern time as the mystery is reconstructed.
There is a second mystery that takes place in modern time - which we also view in flashbacks of 15 years in the past.
I really enjoyed the story, although sometimes I got lost in who's story/time/mystery any given chapter was following. The narrator's voice was too similar across the different characters which left me looking back to the beginning of each chapter to remind myself who was speaking.
All in all, a good book and I would highly recommend it. You have to pay attention though, or you may get all the story lines crossed.
