I really enjoyed this book. It was inspired by the writing of Mary Shelly's "Frankenstein." It takes place at a Villa in Italy. The book is told with Mari and Emily's POV switching back and forth from 1974 to the present. Emily and Chase are both writers and have gone to the Villa to relax and write their books. I have read two other books by Rachel Hawkins, The Wife Upstairs and Reckless Girls. I have noticed that Rachel's writing is very good and kept me interested. In this story, Emily is writing a book about the mystery of what happened at the Villa in the 70's. If you like books about things that happen in the past, then you will love this book. It is a must read when it comes out in January 2023.
