“I am loving this book. SB sure can spin a web. She draws you in right away feeding one tiny detail at a time and you can't put the book down until you know what happened. It is about 3 sisters who grow up in a decaying medieval abby in the heart of rural Suffolk, England. The cataclysmic summer of 1967 will irrevocably and sadly change everyone 's life including the 3 young men ... each of whom loves each sister in startling ways. ”
