The Shifting Fog by Kate Morton
5.0

Spectacular novel about time and memories, secrets and loyalties. Such passion and loss. Absolutely gorgeous descriptions and style. Kate Morton is a fabulous writer who can truly capture differences, and similarities, between the classes of the late nineteenth and early twentieth century England and America. Just a stunning read!

Grace is a former maid at the great house which is Riverton Estate. She knows a secret about what really happened the night a famous poet shot himself at Riverton. She wants to absolve her guilt about her unwitting participation in the events of that night and thus she tells this tale.
