Another winner from Kate Morton. The story of various different groups of people who have lived in an old manor house in an English village from 1862 until 2017. Add a murder and a missing family jewel from the artists who lived there in 1862 through to the archivist who is researching in 2017 and finds buried treasure. And everybody in between - the artist's sister who builds a school for girls there, the student who becomes an archaeologist, the WWI veteran who is missing his brother, the WWII widow who escapes the London blitz with her children to the countryside - the connections and how the pieces all come together is beautifully written. And the main storyteller is a ghost. And her story is the one you wonder about the most and finally learn at the end. Spellbinding story, well written.
