To me, this book is well written, and I would put it in the historical fiction category, with a bit of mystery. It also includes a little romance, a little heartbreak, some mental anguish and evil. Ann Bennett is pretty good an intertwining the lives of three women, pulling you into the mystery of how they all connect from the past to the present-day of the book. I definitely learned things about what it was like during the 1930's in India within British and Indian history. I really wanted to keep reading to find out what happens and although I guessed the mystery earlier in the book, I still wasn't sure until I read it. Even after the mystery is revealed, plus a little more, I wanted there to be at least fifty more pages.
