A
magnificent stand-alone tour de force by this prolific and varied author. Rae
Newbourn, famous woodworker, bereft wife and mother, and recently released from
a mental hospital, chooses to isolate herself on a deserted island in the
middle of Washington state's San Juan Straits. Bequeathed to her to her by the
estate of her viciously judgmental grandfather, Rae is determined to ignore her
panic attacks and paranoia, and single-handedly rebuild the house that her
great uncle had built in the 20's. As always, a mystery reveals itself, and Rae
must question exactly how paranoid she really has been. It's a great 5, I think
it's perfect for a book club.
