I just ❤️ Ruth Hogan. Her whimsical tales full of great characters and dual timelines never disappoint. I say 🔮🔮🔮🔮. The ending tied up way too fast for me, but i still adored it. Madame Burova practices her trade and hears the secrets and heartaches of many customers. After her retirement, she has one secret she has been holding since the 70s. A secret that will set a young woman on a journey to find the truth of who she really is.
