After Anna Shields receives an invitation from her estranged Aunt Lydia, she flies to Tennessee to find a number of older women-Tasha, Sadie, and Chloe-also living on Lydia's farm. Losing power during a blizzard, the women share dark and startling secrets. Skating between past and present, they reveal frighteningly desperate things that they have done. Anna begins to realize, to her shock, that these things are connected to her own past and become key to her future.
Review
This novel was very well written and had a great story line. I liked that it wasn't a typical Women's Fiction novel, it had other elements to it as well. I felt as though I could be reading a TRUE story.
I loved the theme of this novel. How everything unfolded and how surprising some of the revelations were. A great connections between the characters and their lives. A family book that really highlights each person.
Cynn Chadwick has a beautiful and smooth writing style. It was very easy to follow.
