Everyone knows I am a huge Fiona Davis fan. If you ask me for a book recommendation and even hint at the fact you like historical fiction, I am going to put her books on your radar. So, it pains me to say that I simply didn’t vibe with her upcoming release. The magic that I have found in other books by Davis was not there. I did not feel a strong connection to Charlotte or Annie, the novel’s protagonists, as I usually do which led to me not caring how their stories ended up. I am sad that this one didn’t work for me, but I will continue to recommend and read Davis’ work due to my immense love of her other titles.
