This story mixes different elements (paranormal, mystery, historical fiction, romance) making them work well together and creating a compelling and entertaining story.
The dual timeline is fascinating even if I preferred the present time part and found Lizzie more interesting than Amy.
I learned about Amy Robsart and a part of the Tudor history I didn’t know. Amy’s timeline was interesting but a bit too slow.
Lizzie’s timeline is more engrossing and it’s interesting how Lizzie grew on me as she changes during the book facing who she really is and how to face other people expectations.
The character development and the storytelling are good, the paranormal part is interesting.
It was a book that kept me hooked and I liked it as it’s engrossing and entertaining.
Recommended.
