House at Riverton/Kate Morton/614p

It's hard to believe this is Kate Morton’s first book. It had a intriguing plot and
the characters were well developed. Taking place in England, Grace Bradley tells the story of how a young poet supposedly takes his life at a summer party that takes place back in the 1920's. Grace begins as a young maid for the family that lives in this huge estate. She is drawn into the family’s lives as well as the secrets that they keep. Grace will go onto lead an interesting life and to retell her story to a local movie producer. Even though the story seems a little drawn out at times the shocking ending keeps you guessing until the end. If you like this story I would also suggest The Forgotten Garden by Kate Morton.
