This novel lives up to Kate Morton's notoriety as a great story teller. All the characters were vivid, and the way she tied them all together was phenomenal. Just when you thought you had the mysteries figured out, she thru you another curve to keep the interest going to the very last paragraph. I would highly recommend this book, and warn you keep the midnight oil burning as you almost cannot put this down!!
