The Summer Guest by Alison Anderson

4.0

The Summer Guest is a beautifully written mystery encompassing fact and fiction, with both contemporary and historical timeframes. The book highlights three fascinating women whose lives are intertwined by a lost manuscript written by infamous Russian fiction writer and playwright, Anton Chekov. We are transported from the picturesque Ukraine countryside in the 1880's to modern-day London and France, in a quest to discover the truth. Deepest friendship, family bonds, remarkable courage, and imagination are woven into a delightful novel—a sheer joy to read!
