The Bridge Across the Ocean by Susan Meissner follows a commonly used structure to tell the story in two time periods. A character and story exist in the the present. A character and story exist in the past. There is a link between the two. In alternating sections, the book tells both story, drawing them together into a conclusions. What does not really work in this book is the connection between past and present. In this story of two times, the story of the past clearly wins out in terms of characters and plot.
