The Letter by Kathryn Hughes

4.0

This story has so much packed into its pages. It has marital abuse, unplanned pregnancy, mystery, war, love stories, and more. The way the author weaves everything together is very well done.

This book isn't just one story. It is two different stories, set 30 odd years apart, and how they come together through one woman's dogged determination to solve a mystery and reunite a letter with its intended recipient.

The story is very well written, it really held my attention. I couldn't wait to see if Tina would find a way out of her day to day life, why the letter in question was never delivered, and what happened to those involved in both stories. There were a lot of different strands to the story, can everything come together and provide a satisfactory ending? Check it out for yourselves if you want to find out.

Recommended read from me.
