review 1: Gregory Murphy takes us to New York City before World War I. He tells us a story about a rich lawyer who falls upon a real estate case that changes his life. William Dysart superficially has everything; a great job, big house and beautiful wife. After reading more into the mysterious character Sybil Curtis, he begins to realize that not only he has inner demons. He also concludes that life has more to offer outside of his pressuring family and posh dinners. Great book!
review 2: I picked this up from the library because, after watching Downton Abbey, I was interested in the period. I liked it. It's hard to explain why because many points of the plot make no sense when the mysteries of the story are explained and some characters are one-dimentional. The m... moreain characters -- William, the lawyer, Mrs. Billings, the client fosted upon him by his employer, and Sybil - the owner of property his client wants to purchase -- are fun to read about; finding out how their story ended kept my interest, and the end of the story was not predictable. But how did Sybil ended up owning the property - that makes no sense after you learn the whole story. But never mind -- it is essential to making the story work. And the story is engrossing. less
