What a great book! The beginning was a little tough for me, because there were so many pieces to the puzzle being introduced, and I didn't know why each one was important. But the writing was fantastic, so I kept going, and the more I read the harder it was to put the book down! This is also a period of history I'm not as familiar with, so it was fun to learn new things as the story unfolded :-)

Great book! I thought it was going to be a nice, light book, but instead it was a great not-light read. Full of interesting history. It's set in the first part of the 17th century, in both England and America.

I'll be reading her other novel soon.

I *want* to like Kathleen Kent's books so much more than I do - because I love the premise behind them. I don't know what happens, but I'm just never completely engaged in them.

Not too bad- historical fiction with some strong female characters. Good for book club discussion.

Loved this book. Historical novel, romance and (sort of) spy thriller all rolled into one. Now I have to read "The Heretic's Daughter" also by Kathleen Kent.
