Overall this book was just OK. The ending felt quite abrupt and not earned with the eventual reveal of whodunnit. 

So I went into this thinking this would be a bit different than it turned out. I assumed the father would be this whimsical father that everyone loved which was partially true, but his actions after death seem questionable....

Forcing your estranged daughters to jump through hoops to get an inheritance

(which turns out to be a ancestral thing esp since the town was built by their family)

just feels dirty.  I didnt find the conflict between the sisters interesting either, at times it felt quite petty and would be settled then out of the blue it would spark up again out of no where.

I wish there was more focus on the towns characters coming together to help the sisters and put together the solstice event. I found myself waiting for these moments and getting bored with the long stretches of just interpersonal drama.

The side stories with the sisters partners were mildly interesting, I really think the author could have cut some of it out and focused in on one of the relationships in particular that had some weight too it.

Overall the novel was just OK but the outside dramas out side of the holiday fun really bring down the rating for me.
