I started reading it sometime yesterday and read almost 300 pages before my eyes gave out and I had to go to sleep. I made myself finish some housework, then I sat down and read the rest of the story.
What a good story. There is the mystery surrounding a curse that dates back to 1848 and the current life of Luke and Talie and their son Ben. The chapters alternate between life now and life in England and Ireland in the late 1800s.
My only complaint about the book is the typeface that is used in the beginning of the chapters when Cosima Escott Hamilton's diary is being read (it is a little hard to read when the light is poor in the room). Other than that, the book kept my interest and I am looking forward to reading the next book in this series.
