Compelling Dual Time Line

AMAZING! One of my favorite books this year as it ticked all the boxes for everything I want in a great book. I find dual time line fascinating when it is done well and all the connections between past and present are woven together flawlessly. From 1885 London to 2023 London you will be engrossed from start to finish. I loved the characters and the flow of the story. Although it was heartbreaking at times I loved the tenacity of Lillian to find her niece and her compassion for her sister. I give the author kudos for being brave enough to tackle the delicate subject of child trafficking and shine the light on this difficult subject with finesse. If you are looking for a book that you can’t put down then I suggest moving this to the top of your must read pile . Sometimes we read a book that resonates with us and we don’t want it to end and that was what this was for me. Faith, family, friends, history, and romance that combine into a book well worth reading. I received a complimentary copy from CelebrateLit. The honest review and opinions are my own and were not required.
