This book made the rounds through my whole family, from grandparents, to parents to teens; and everyone loved it! The characters are richly developed, multi-generational, and oddly familiar for each of us. We all had our favorite- mine being the hip, zany grandma.
For those familiar with the Santa Cruz coast, you will be transported to some familiar spots. For those who aren’t, you are about to have a rich experience in a beautiful location.
The story is suspenseful, and vivid right up to the end. I loved the way Robin wove in so many details, like the pie making, Farmers Market, marriage and child rearing challenges, and the ideals and politics around organic farming and GMO’s.
This is a book with an intriguing, suspenseful story, characters with real life breathed into them, and a gorgeous setting. I highly recommend it.
