I do not know how Henry Haggard Rider did it, but the stories about Allan I read so far are great.
This story is about Allan's wife, but also, I would say about his family.
Allan's personal and family life is truly tragic, the book is filled with trauma.
If three previous books were filled with adventure and action where this one filled with adventure and drama.
