A story about deep pain, sorrow, and guilt. Andie and Jack were getting closer in college when it all blew up. At the same time, her beloved father died. She buried her grief deeply and ran from facing it. This played havoc on her until, as his publisher, she had to travel with Jack on his book tour. Things begin to surface, causing her to continue to deflect the emotions. A moving story.
Another thrilling novel of crime and all its ugliness. The characters are superb with quirks and a ton of knowledge. The scenes are enhanced by descriptions of the surrounding territory that draw you further into the story. A true winner.
Honestly, I struggled to read this novel for at least half way. At that point, there were three more hours to the novel and I gave up even though I tried to find any chapter to capture my interest and maintain it.

Her request-let her teach him about the character. Will this be the best thing to do or will it mortally fail?

When the aunt who raised a woman begins to appear to her nightly, the woman is confused as to why. It always appears as if the ghost has some urgent message to relay.

Such a delightful story.

The novel relates the story of women that form a book club and read The Feminine Mystique by Betty Friedan when it was first published. The book challenges the women to look at their lives and at the injustices to women in a male dominated society.
I found the novel to be a slow read. I did not connect with the women although I know the history of the time represented.
