I haven't read any of Moriarty's books
before, but after reading this one, I will definitely read her
others. It's the story of 3 women whose lives intersect after one of
them finds a letter from her husband to be read after his death. She
reads the letter while he is till alive and this sets off a series of
events that cause her to rethink her whole marriage and it greatly
impacts the lives of the other women.
The author made the characters seem multi-dimensional and thus very real in spite of the extraordinary situations they find themselves in. They all face moral dilemmas, and it's interesting to read how they handle that. One main theme that is repeated throughout the story is what a parent will do to protect his or her children.
This was a great read. I couldn't put it down. I don't think I would have reacted the same way the characters did, but it was fascinating to read about them.
