I generally steer clear of novels set in other than contemporary times but one of my web book friends gave this a strong recommendation and I am so glad he did. The story goes from 1900 through 1945 and follows the people of a small California town. A woman found dead in her bath in 1941 leads to a trail through the history of this small town. The book grips from word one to the end. Young man with little is taken in by rich Calif. family. He becomes a WW1 hero and returns to town after several years and becomes Sheriff He then becomes involved in an investigation of a murder. This book was interesting at first and then got way bogged down in too much dialogue. Would have been a better book with 350pages rather than 550. . The linking of historical events and characters from the 1910's and 1920's with the police detective and the mystery he is trying to solve in 1941 is the major point of interest in this story. However, the book is too long, and the characters are not well developed. There is a lot of action, but no character-related dramatic tension. ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu
