My Review
Where's the option for more than five stars, I'd give it one
hundred stars if I could . How do I write a review for the best book I've read this year?
The dual time frame perfectly meshes old and new, 70 years is but
a drop in the bucket of time. A 70 year cold case murder mystery begging to be solved , will there
for justice for a young woman tragically murdered in the prime of her life.
70 years later a young woman fascinated with the historical case starts piecing together clues from the case and oh boy the family secrets she uncovers.
Maybe the town wasn't as innocent as it seemed all those years ago. As we meet characters and the mystery deepens you will become engrossed in the story. Believe me the story will grip you and absolutely not let you go!
The atmosphere really builds and the story line is superb . So many twists and unexpected turns I recommend this to you as it's my absolute favorite I've read this year! Published December 3rd 2019 by Bethany House Publishers I was given a complimentary copy of this book. Thank you. All opinions expressed are my own.
GoodReads Summary
After Aggie Dunkirk's career is unceremoniously ended by her own mistakes, she finds herself traveling to Wisconsin, where her grandmother, Mumsie, lives alone in her vintage, though very outdated, home. Aggie didn't plan for how eccentric Mumsie has become, obsessing over an old, unsolved crime scene--even going so far as to re-create it in a dollhouse. Mystery seems to follow Aggie when she finds work as a secretary helping to restore the flooded historical part of the town's cemetery. Forced to work with a puzzling yet attractive archaeologist, she exhumes the past's secrets and unwittingly uncovers a crime that some will go to any length to keep hidden--even if that means silencing Aggie. In 1946, Imogene Grayson works in a beauty salon but has her sights set on Hollywood. But coming home to discover her younger sister's body in the attic changes everything. Unfamiliar with the burgeoning world of forensic science and, as a woman, not particularly welcomed into the investigation, Imogene is nonetheless determined to stay involved. As her sister's case grows cold, Imogene vows to find justice . . . no matter the cost.
