I have read several books by this author and they all have an enchantment to them. This book also has that enchanting feel. It is also very intriguing and well woven together. I would say it is a story with a great deal of tragic realism. This book is very different from any other books that I have read, but it is so good. Lily Temple is hiding something and I found myself trying to figure it out the entire time. And I found the ability of Peter Driscoll to read people fascinating. These two characters work well together. I would recommend this novel to anyone who likes unique novels which are not your typical happy go lucky story.
I received a complimentary copy from the publisher. The opinions in this review are my own.
