Desperately in need of editing. Such an enticing premise - how well can anyone know a loved one? Such a disappointing delivery. As an Irish-American, I guessed one of her twists within the first couple pages - there was no mystery or tension for me on that storyline. I couldn't believe she took so long to state the obvious. Shreve appears to have done no research on the history of turmoil in Ireland. I found the characters to be shallow and not fully developed. I didn't particularly like or sympathize with the widow. I did read the whole book, hoping it would improve or actually surprise me, but it did not.
