Each time the darkness comes she gets another go, and each time the consequences are good, and bad, and the same.
I love how she learns from her past lives but never knows really that she has.

Parts of this book are set during the Spanish flu, the London Blitz, the Bombing of Berlin and the German Third Reich, and feature the expected horrors of each setting. However, I think part of the point of the book is to say that tragedies, horrors and other malign things happen all the time, even outside of these big events and even in seemingly-idyllic and safe locations.
