I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It is a very realistic account of happenings in Colonial America. Especially intriguing is that the author is a descendant of the main character so it is based on fact.

All I can say is "eye-opening". What a way to grow up, knowing that your neighbor was trying to take over the country! To have even lived through the experience is amazing. Hard to put down.

How the Columbine shooting is related to future events is very well shown. Great way to show the severity of PTSD and how it can impact a person for life. I totally did not expect the climax. After that, though, the ending was almost a letdown.

I thought I had it figured out - I was wrong. Nice twist to the ending.

Great book! It was great to see the personal side of Jackie Kennedy. This book made her seem so real and not the image that the media tried to promote.

Very thought-provoking. The author has very complex personal relationships between the characters. He also sheds light on corporate cover-ups and mistreatment of workers. It reminds me of the writing of Upton Sinclair with a bit of Catherine MArshall's "Christy" mixed in.

A very informative and entertaining book. I have read biographies of the presidents and knew some of the things included but her research unearthed other facts. I highly recommend this book.

Excellent book. It is an objective view of Laura Ingalls Wilder covering the facts of her life Vs. the way she portrayed them in her books. Looked carefully at the way her daughter influenced her writing and the controversy over who actually wrote the books.

This as a great book to read. The author was able to relate he actual life events of Laura to how she presented them in her books. It was hard for me to put down.

Excellent book in the style Of Ms. Alcott herself. although the book is fictionalized it adds to what is already known about her life. The reader made the book come alive.

Very honest and open picture of her life. Lucy shared her happiness and her pain through her words. She showed us why we love Lucy.

I look at Lyndon Johnson that I had never seen before. My perception of him was not very positive. At the beginning of the book I started to see a different side of him and started to change my opinion. Then by the end my former opinion started to resurface. A very complex and conflicting person.

Put Martha Washington into a new perspective. Showed her as an independent woman - ahead of her time.

As usual, Coulter has offered a thrilling mystery. Leaves the reader unsure of the outcome until the very end.

Dr. Maier has created an intriguing mystery using Biblical facts to enhance what is taking place in the novel. Having read "A Skeleton in God' Closet" previously helped me to understand the references he makes to the "earlier Case" but it is not necessary to have read the previous book. This book was one of those "I can't put it down until I'm finished" stories.
Review Date: 3/17/2021
Another Catherine Coulter gem. As usual, once started it can't be put down.
