Listened to this as an audiobook. Was enthralled from page 1 and sad it ended. The juxtaposition of present day to 1646 and the 2 female leads was brilliant. I found myself (& my daughter, who got hooked as well) cheering on the leads and yelling at the unfairness of their situations. It gave tangible human voice to a period of history that needs more illumination. Well done!
