I really wanted to like this book. The premise was interesting and I dove into it thinking I would absolutely love it. I enjoyed the settings for the book as the main character moved among Scotland, Italy, and France; some of the history of what she was researching was interesting, as well. However, I felt like there were too many plot points moving within the story, rather than a few things going on and being done well, there were multiple plot points that were only ok. I found the main character a bit insufferable and was basically yelling at her from the beginning about bad decisions I knew she was going to make. I think we were also given a back story for her that wasn't really entirely necessary and instead I just saw her making the same mistakes over again. I saw some of the "twists" coming and as someone who usually can't guess what will happen, that was a bit disappointing.
