Solid read. Actually quite enjoyable for me as I read this on my road trip from east to west coast with my dog (who fortunately is nothing like Natalie's cat Penguin).

Natalie Walker is the reason her brother and sister were sent to prison all those years ago. When their mother dies the only way they can inherit the historic house is if the three of them come back together to claim it. I loved this story of a family estranged from each other trying desperately to find their way back.

Also, Paul was such a complete tool I was yelling at him while I listened to the book in my car, so one star given because it was fun to call a fictional character a douchebag out loud.
