I found this on my bookcase, not quite sure how i came to possess it, but thought i would give it a read.
I like to try and give every book a chance, but i really struggled with this one. The plot was flimsy, if not non existant. And the characters are totally unrelatable. It takes a lot for me to give a book only one star, but this book managed it.
I would not reccomend this book, and will be giving it to the charity shop.

Quite a nice little historical mystery story following the lives of three characters from the late 1800s through the roaring 20s to their old age. It was a quick read & I really enjoyed it but was a little disappointed by the ending as the final revelation of whodunnit felt rushed and abrupt.

Meh. Usually I don't keep reading books that are one or two stars. This one held my interest but it still is overwritten and somewhat annoying. I am sorry I didn't put it down. The ending seemed prurient in a non-interesting way.
A sister and brother of a certain age are found dead along with their elderly housekeeper. The three voices then tell their stories leading up to the deaths, including their life on a country estate before and during WWI. The execution just didn't work. Not recommended.
