While the writing was really good and the story was interesting, the jump in time between part one and part two reduced my interest enough that I ended up reading a different book before getting back to the second half of this novel.

It was an interesting mix of mystery and historical fiction. I found it interesting how many characters chose things that were not in their best interests. I guess that makes for an interesting novel.

I really want to give it 4.5 stars. It's a beautifully written book that had me from page one. But the ending felt a bit to uncertain and abrupt.
