review 1: This is a pretty good book with a weak title. I almost didn't pick it up to read because the title was so lame. But I'm glad I decided to try it. This combines mysteries from the 1700s and the early 1900s with some strange family actions in the present. Judith (Jude) is the historical investigator who helps unravel everything and, of course, finds love at the end. But the wonderful details from history and the voice of Esther from the past more than redeem the slightly predictable resolution.
review 2: I enjoyed this book...having said that I read another review that mentioned how everything worked out a little too perfectly, which normally is something i like,happy endings and all, but it did make me laugh a little how well everything tied together and ev
... moreerything had an explaination that magically was discovered. i also felt the ending dragged on a little too long as everything unfolded. But yes, i gave it four stars because i loved the premises. I love stories that take place in the present but tell stories from the passed. Stories with mysteries and secrets to be told. And when there is some romance involved i couldn't be happier. So even with the negative i mentioned, it was still my kind of book. less

History, mystery, and a little bit of romance. Great combination. Really enjoyed this book.
