England, 1898. When Evelyn first married the famous novelist William Aubrey, she was dazzled by his brilliance. But their newlywed bliss is brief when William is gripped by writer's block, and he becomes jealous of Evelyn's writing talent.

Or so Abigail thought, until she stumbled upon his photo and a message that her great-great-grandmother was the author Evelyn Aubrey, leading Abigail on a journey to England in search for answers. There, she learns of Evelyn's shocking disappearance and how London society believed she was murdered. But from what she uncovers about Evelyn, Abigail believes her brilliant great-great-grandmother had another plot up her sleeve.

Told in the present and the past, the story revolves around a woman seeking her unknown father in the present and a married couple who are both writers in the past. I honestly got a bit sick of the way the woman in the past was restricted by cultural norms and her cruel husband. ( )

To steal other's descriptive words, I found this family saga lyrical, captivating and gripping, and the characters so rich with depth! A great way to escape on a wintry day. Burdick did a great job going between the two time periods, intertwining them so well. The twists were just complicated enough to make me think I'd caught her in a mistake, but no, it all worked so well. (edit) ( )

A time split read starting with Evelyn marring William, a life of happiness, well not quite. Then we meet Abby her Great Granddaughter, and her journey to find family!
We travel from California to England with Abby, but also we journey the life of Evelyn, and just when you think there are answers, well, no! Keep page turning and looking for answers and what happened to Evelyn and to the rest of the Aubrey family!
Are there answers, yes, but don't take the first one! There are surprises, and new members of the family, well, new to Abby, and then the family curse!
This did become a page turner for me, I wanted the real answers! There are so many twists and turns here!
I received this book through Net Galley and the Publisher Harlequin, and was not required to give a positive review. ( )
