This Orange Prize winner is beautifully written and kept my interest to the last page. The mysteries are intriguing, and only gradually are secrets revealed. Throughout the book there are hints of past and present dangers and at times I was almost afraid to read on and find out what was underlying everything that was happening. But . . . was it that I missed something, or were more questions left unanswered at the end than were explained?
