The story is told through several generations of women, all trying to solve a mystery in the family. It was a full, rich story and I enjoyed every minute of it!

5 estrellotas como una catedral. La amé, precioso.
Very much a fairy tale for grown ups. I like how she paid homage to the dark and twisted fairy tales that many of us loved as children and set it in the context of how that could play out in real life.

Es una historia que me ha atrapado. Me ha gustado como se va desenrollando la madeja del secreto familiar, acompañando a la protagonista en su investigación. Creo que los personajes tienen mucha profundidad, aunque de alguna manera me ha parecido que la protagonista Cassandra era algo más plana.
I enjoyed the intertwined stories of the generations of characters. The story was very compelling. I'm a slow reader and the book is long, but I was able to remember all the story lines and stayed "hooked" until the last page.
