Even before that, the seeds of tragedy are sown in the Fifties, when twelve-year-old Lucy first visits London and the same hotel.

I read this book for two book clubs, both of which gave it favorable reviews. This book is comprised of three stories about three different women, but who are all connected. It is about the angel of life, the angel of death, and the angel that lives on earth. A story about love, there is something for everyone to relate to on some level or another.
