This book was captivating and well-written. I passed it on to a history buff who thoroughly enjoyed it. I found myself waiting and hoping throughout the story.

I love all of Jodi Picoult's books. However, the heroine's husband in this book really ticked me off. A simple road trip to retrieve a wife who needs space is not going to change a man.
