That was a fun quick read to get a bit more background of how St. Mary's came to be. Maybe with a bit too much exposition for future stories?  [I've stopped giving star ratings in May 2024]

I suppose one needs to have read the actual story to get more out of this one. I assume it answers more questions asked in the books, and doesn't work well as the first book to read in the series :-D
But, I'm interested.

I wish this had been narrated by Zara Ramm instead of Jodi Taylor.
