Review:

'A relentlessly paced novel with strong secondary characters and a plotline evocative of Downton Abbey and Upstairs Downstairs, this chilling narrative with detailed background on turn-of-the-century life in the Windy City will keep readers engaged until the denouement.' --Library Journal

'Gray writes with honesty, tenderness, and depth. Her characters are admirable, richly layered, and impossible to forget long after the story is done.' --Jillian Hart, praise for the author

'Vivid details, excellent prose, a pleasing, steady pace, and a satisfying mystery combine in Gray's latest. She is a skilled storyteller who reminds the reader through her characters that faith can help us survive the ups and downs in life.' --RT Book Reviews (4 stars)
