I enjoyed Smite's story of the Turner series most of all. All the brothers were complicated characters and damaged in their own way. Yet they were all survivors. As a result, Smite was so uncompromisingly rigid that he was hard to swallow sometimes. Being a magistrate was a means to keep order in his life and a reminder to do good by the people. I loved how his emotions ran deep even though he refused to recognize them to himself or share them with others. Not only was he puzzled by his growing feelings for Miranda but he resented that he couldn't keep a lid on his long dormant anger at his oldest brother's abandonment. Smite's admission how he felt unraveled was quite poignant. Overall, I thought it was a good read and a wonderful farewell to the Turner family. Four stars.
