Good story
Sometimes a book introduces strong characters or sweeping scenery that takes your breath away. While this book did have wonderful characters and an interesting setting, in my opinion this work was so enjoyable because it was just a really good story. A story that burrowed into your heart and mind, and transported you exactly where Ms. Klassan wishes you to be. Once again, she has earned all her awards and accolades. The only thing wrong with this book is that it ultimately has to come to the inevitable end. Ms. Klassan, how about a sequel?

Good story, but seemed to end abruptly.
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Maybe. It's a good story, but seems to end so abruptly it's really disappointing.
If you’ve listened to books by Julie Klassen before, how does this one compare?
Well it seemed to me as if the writer just ran out material and ended the story. No epilogue, etc.
Any additional comments?
Listened quickly, enjoyed the story and mystery, but was disappointed in the last couple of chapters and specifically the abrupt ending.

Abrupt ending
Would have loved a follow up, the story was very long for such a short ending. Still worth the read

Great story, good narration
This is a really good story and the narration was good too, but I don’t know if it was the narrator or the editing but there was way too much dead air in between the parts of the story.
I liked listening to Margaret’s learning experiences as a housemaid. The details were interesting and written in such a way as to not be boring. Very well written.
