Customer Reviews

a complicated family story with a unexpected ending.

I have just finished reading this novel and found it to be intriguing.It is a story with many twists and surprise developments yet it also was in a way rather predictable.I do not usually read mystery type books but this one got me hooked and I was interested to see what was going to happen. One of the main characters , Grandma Violet was a wonderfully entertaining potrayal of an old lady who had many dark secrets and she herself made the book worth reading. I think anyone who enjoys stories about complicated families would love this book
