Excellent! Great story, great characters, well written. Sarah in 2013: author researching her family history goes to England, meets John Langford, young member of parliament who is undergoing a scandal, and gains access to his family archives to research and solve a family mystery. Caroline and Tess in 1915: onboard the Lusitania. Caroline in a troubled marriage, wealthy, trying to revive her marriage but also attracted to Robert Langford. Tess is a former con artist who has one more deal to do and she is then determined to go straight and start a new life. Their stories intersect. The mystery is good and so is the love story - both the one in 1915 and the current day one.
