I stumbled upon this author, not knowing much about her style or her books. Just picked up one of hers one day because I liked the cover. I don't remember much about that book, only that I liked it and decided to get more on PBS. This recent one-although took me longer to finish than most other books, was amazing. Mystery, Romance, History...all of it. I admit I have overlooked this author, but I plans to check out more of her work. If you are a first time reader of Carol Goodman-this book should have you wanting more. Amazing!

I read this book after reading her previous novel, The Lake of Dead Languages. I found this one even more of a page turner, good complex mystery story with some mythical elements mixed in.

Carol Goodman has quickly become one of my favorite authors. This is a wonderful novel ... terrific characterization, very involving ... most recommended!

This is a great book. It's intelligent, is well written and beautiful. I love Carol Goodman and look forward to more from her.
it's no surprise that i couldn't put this book down.
the characters were lively, the plot interesting (one of those books you finally put down between chapters and find yourself still wondering what's going on, what's going to happen...). not my favorite of her books, but that's either because; a- nothing could beat 'lake of dead languages' (which i HIGHLY recommend you read) or possibly, b- i've read too many of her books in too short a time and have grown bored with something in them.

The story of a woman who grew up in a luxury hotel in the Catskills whose mother died under dubious circumstances. She unravels the mystery in this enthalling novel. Well written, great character development.
