Editorial Reviews

Editorial Reviews

“Captivates you with its charm, quirkiness, and old-fashioned storytelling.” Daily Mail (London)
“Reads like a quiet domestic mystery and a romantic drama rolled into one…Absorbing and exciting.” RT Book Reviews
“Solomons creates in Juliet a detailed character portrait of a woman who exhibits strength and poise under less than ideal conditions. Each chapter tells the story of one of Juliet’s paintings and of important events in her life, and readers will respond to the realistic and beautifully flawed characteristics assigned to her.” Library Journal (starred review)
