Publisher's summary

Inspired by true events, in Sofia Grant’s powerfully moving new novel a young woman peels back the layers of her family’s history, discovering a tragedy in the past that explains so much of the present. This unforgettable story is one of hope, healing, and the discovery of truth.

Sometimes the untold stories of the past are the ones we need to hear...

When Katie Garrett gets the unexpected news that she’s received an inheritance from the grandmother she hardly knew, it couldn’t have come at a better time. She flees Boston - and her increasingly estranged husband - and travels to rural Texas.

There, she’s greeted by her distant cousin Scarlett. Friendly, flamboyant, eternally optimistic, Scarlett couldn’t be more different from sensible Katie. And as they begin the task of sorting through their grandmother’s possessions, they discover letters and photographs that uncover the hidden truths about their shared history, and the long-forgotten tragedy of the New London school explosion of 1937 that binds them.

BORING

I have just over 4 hours left of this book and I am not sure I can finish it. Everyday lives, every day characters just do not have the page turning/listening desire that I look for. As soon as a chapter starts to have an interesting storyline to it, the book jumps either forward in time or backward in time. Then when those characters are visited again, the storyline is back to just "meh". Very frustrated with this book because I have recently had bad luck picking a great book. So much potential, but no delivery.

Hank’s voice is the same as the other male characters

I wish the audio had other voice to play the other characters. Also I thought it has too much drivel

Very good story.

Very interesting story. It was a little long getting to the point/revelation/surprise, but it’s very well written and I enjoyed it very much.

To much swearing. I shut it off!

Dislike swearing it cheapened the book! Sad that authors feel it should be included in order to get people to read

What a bore and complaining mess

Truthfully, everyone is spoiled and complaining, and even the voice of the narrator matches the writer and her Prose. Don’t waste your time or money.
