Recenzii

...the strands interweave perfectly to produce an engrossing read which moves seamlessly between past and present...The reader will warm to Kelly and the book handles the issue of bullying and being different with great understanding.
...an interesting and fabulously well-researched historical mystery. I loved this story. What is so great...is that the whole story was conceived from local historical events.
The uncovering of domestic heroism and the little tragedies that contributed to the delivery of a remote public building is surprisingly moving.
