Book Review of The Tuscan Child

The Tuscan Child
junie avatar reviewed on + 630 more book reviews


Another interesting dual time line as most Historical Fiction books tend to be. This one is set during the war when a British Plane crashes in Tuscany and Hugo, the badly hurt Pilot is hidden in the hills and cared for by a young woman. Ultimately they fall in love.

Present time, Hugo's estranged daughter decides to search what happened to her father and the woman he loved during the war.

The scenery was beautiful, great food and wine were enticing as Joanna searched for anyone who remembered the past. As secrets were uncovered, murder and mysteries resolved, the ending was apropos, relating to the love story and left me with a good feeling.
