I hope other readers give this one more stars. I thought it was a well-wrought yarn - the mystery thread was not all it needed to be, but in most other respects it was a memorable homefront story with warmth, suspense, and telling detail - satisfyingly specific and emotional. The prose evidenced more care than some. Will look forward to this author's next story of Pearl Harbor in spring 2019.

I agree with the review that said 'a whole lot of nothing'--reads like a young adult book, no substance.
