Amazingly written, and completely envelops you with each passing moment. Grace is now at the age of 99, and reflecting on her full life to her grandson. She was a young houemaid that grew to be a proper lady's maid, entwined within a family of privilege in the early 1900s in a country estate in England. The story moves along quickly and thoroughly, and there is nothing left hanging in this book -- you will be drawn into a lifetime of secreats and revelations, and you will not regret one moment spent with the characters in this book!
