I enjoyed the house at riverton but have to say that this was even better!!!! I could hardly put it down and was so totally engrossed in it from the first to the last page.

I commend Kate Morton for writing a book that is such a joy to read.

In 1975, she finds a few more pieces of the puzzle, and in 2005 her granddaughter Cassandra finally solves the mystery of who Nell was and how she came to ... Read More

Rating: - so glad that it's forgotten
A friend gave me this to read when I was recovering from THE bug...Oh dear. What a dull, lame, boring book...so pedestrian that it practically walked out by itself.
