Reviews

[Ellen Hamilton · Rating 5 out of 5]

I read this book nearly 7 years ago. The story always hung around in the back of my memory, but I couldn't remember the title until I searched for it online.
Although I did not like the sudden ending that left some little things unexplained, the rest of the story was a great read for me, as it was my first (supernaturally) mystery book. I admired Fanny, thought her stepsister very silly, and positively despised the red-haired man.

This was a good book. It is a mystery about a girl and her stepsister. The stepsister is hiding something and her sister is trying to find out what it is. If you like mysteries you would like this book.

[LuAnn · Rating 4 out of 5]

A creepy and compelling mystery involving a blended family, grief, local land use and economy, and a Scottish legend set in modern times!
