Meissner’s writing is beautiful, intriguing and the book is a page turner! I was so excited reading this book that I didn’t want to put it down. It gave color to a history I had only heard about in history books. I highly recommend this book to anyone who likes historical fiction or mystery.
This book comes out October 4, 2011.
I received this Advance Reading Copy from Waterbrook Multnomah publishers for the purpose of this review.
