Temple Fade With A Tape Up

I just heard ....

..... something completely different:

Kate Morton The Forgotten Garden

3 different time levels, 3 different perspectives, three women whose lives are somehow linked. In this "somehow" I am not yet arrived, but so far I like it very well, although I'm not a fan of family stories actually.

on her 21st Birthday is something happened in the life of her grandmother Nell. The experiences her granddaughter, the Australian Cassandra, as she speaks at the funeral with her two aunts, Dot and Phyllis. On her last visit to the hospital Nell had spoken of a strange lady, she had promised, at the Port of London to wait for them. Cassandra had this for the first utterance of a confused mind kept. But her aunt to open her persistent inquiries, the eyes.

because Nell is not the person who has seen Cassandra until her death in it. The experience with the lady has met. Nell's alleged father was the troubled four-year-old with nothing but a little white children's suitcase on the harbor, taking with them. Raised as a culinary favorite daughter grew up with two sisters, Nell well guarded in her parents' house - to her father, the shocking truth revealed. Cassandra, who had built up as a child, a personal relationship with her grandmother as a bitter and beastly force, inherited the cottage in Cornwall. And she begins to search the family history ....

Where have I heard this far and it was exciting, well told and, despite the leaps in time I come with good. Recommended for hand sewing, quilting, knit or embroider - okay, you can also press or something to do boring ;-)
