I was amazed to see a review of this book that had one star and a lot of criticism directed at what the reviewer felt were "historical inaccuracies". I thought it was a great story. The heroine is not knock-dead beautiful, in fact, has a tendency to skin rashes and has a limp and scars from being burned in a fire. Her parents have been murdered for political reasons and she witnessed it. She stutters as a result. So what does this gal have going for her, she's honest, optimistic, responsible and brave. Her inner qualities show through. The story has quite a few twists and turns and surprises, like a mystery. It is well-written and the author shows a sense of humor. Historical characters are introduced and I feel appropriately. I would have liked it to be a bit longer. Perhaps the other reviewer was having a cranky day.
