I loved this book! It was beautifully written. I immediately went and ordered as many others by her as I could!

Love story + ghost story = great story!

This is a great story. It goes back and forth between two generations and tells a murder mystery, a ghost story, and a love story. It keeps your attention and ultimately connects all the stories together.

A book that you absolutely cannot put down once you start reading it. This was one of the most incredible books I have ever read.

This lady knows "down Maine". I know people like this. Very true to the area.

This is a creepy book. After receiving it and starting to read it, I remembered that I had tried to read this previously. The ghost story part of it creeps me out so bad, I can't finish it. If you like ghost stories, then this is a great book for you!

This book was hard to get into. Not that interesting of a story, but I did finish it to the end. The ghost parts of the story are very creepy and made me not want to be awake after everyone else went to bed in my house.

The synopsis doesn't do this book justice. The "other" story is just as engrossing as the one about Conary. The author completely and gracefully takes you back into not one but two different times and places and the story leaves you in awe as to how human emotion and feeling can change so dramatically.

Combines the chilling tension of a murder mystery with the most tender elements of youthful romance. Haunting in every sense.A believable tragic love story.

This was a Los Angeles Times Best Book of the Year 2001

I really liked this book. Once I started it, I couldn't put it down. The author captured the family dynamics occurring and how the patterns of behavior escalated into tragedy. One of the characters is an observer - an outsider drawn into the family circle - and her observations really help you understand just how broken this family has become - mostly because they won't share their pain or any other feelings. It was a very moving story.

This book took me by surprise. After reading the reviews from other PBS members, I decided to give it a try. WOW! I loved this book! I can't say exactly why, but I started reading it on a rainy day and finished it the same day. The author has a way to keep you interested throughout the book.

Really enjoyed this book and gave it 5 stars!

I really liked how the book jumps between two different time periods. And I thought the author writes very nicely but there was just something missing. By the end of the book I just wasn't satisfied. I had anticipated that I would really like this book. It's not that I didn't like it but it just wasn't what I was expecting it to be.

This sory bounces between to time periods and while both stories are intersting they really don't have much to do with one another. One story is about a young couple of the md 1850's who marry and live on an island of the Maine coast. Their story is one of hardships, betrayal, young love and regrets. I found their story sad and drepressing yet hauntingly real. The second story told though out this book is of a young couple madly in love during the mid 1950's. Their story is full of love , adventure and more of a coming of age story. I found the way the author weaved both stories together to be very intersting and her charc. development was super. I live in a small town I while reading this story I found myself able to envision these lovers walking in my town. I would recommend this read to anyone who wants a great story based on real human emotions and real life experiences.

This book was definitely different than what I expected, but I still really enjoyed. I especially enjoyed how there were two time periods going on in every other chapter to tell the whole story. This method kept the book very interesting and hard to put down. I definitely recommend it to anyone, not just people who enjoy ghost stories.

Excellent Book, quick read. Makes you "think", but not too heavy. I highly recommend it.

Haunting!!!!!

In the small town of Dundee, Maine, an old woman named Hannah Gray begins her story: "Somebody said 'true love is like ghosts, which everyone talks about and few have seen." I've seen both and I don't know how to tell you which is worse." Hannah has decided, finally, to leave a record of the passionate and anguished long-ago summer when she met Conary Crocker, the town bad boy and love of her life.

Great quick read

A novel about love and marriage interwoven with a murder mystery that will keep that pages turning.

Crisp. Little frightening at moments, but not overly. Worth reading just for the descriptions of the land.
