Kate Morton is my favorite author, and this book is what solidified my admiration of her.

This is the second book of Morton's I’ve read and I LOVED it! It's such a great mystery with just the right amount of subplots that actually supported the main plot. I was guessing so many theories the whole book, and although I did figure out two of the major reveals I still thoroughly enjoyed it. Plus, there were plenty of other reveals and twists that surprised me. Morton also just has a beautiful writing style; there were two pages towards the end of the book that made me cry because it was some of the most moving, brilliant, perfect writing I’ve ever read. I also love that even though it’s a third person, you do get several people’s perspectives in a way throughout the book.
