Author Emily Wilson is heartbroken. While struggling through a divorce, she receives an invitation to her ex-husband's wedding. Awful circumstances. So when her Great Aunt Bee calls her back to Bainbridge Island for a few weeks, Emily has nothing to lose. She heads back to a spot that she had much fondness for during childhood, thinking she will both write and heal herself.
While settling in one night, Emily finds a red velvet diary in her bedside table, one that has an intriguing story. She cautiously chooses not to ask her Aunt about it. The story is both heartbreaking and fascinating, a story that has roots in Bainbridge Island and touches everyone that Aunt Bee knows.
This is a story that will pull you in and intrigue you...until you get to the end. I liked the writing and I liked the idea of the plot, but I couldn't help but feel the author pulled a big trick on her readers by obscuring the truth about her characters.
