Some historical overlap that I first learned about while reading Killers Of The Moon Flower (David Grann) but with classic Lisa Wingate dual timelines perfection.
This thriller was really powerful and so compulsively paced, I couldn‘t put it down. This was a new author for me, I believe a debut, but you‘d never know it with the seamless way she crafted this story. An archeologist working for the Bureau of Indian Affairs is drawn into a mystery from her childhood that she thought she left behind. Set in Oklahoma and Rhode Island, this story was inspired by true events.
A solid dual-timeline mystery set in the Winding Stair National Park in Oklahoma.
Meh. Admittedly, this isn't my kind of historical fiction at all, but I had a hard time caring about any of the historical sections and the dialogue at times read like the characters were quoting from a history book. It was heavy-handed in many ways, and I enjoyed the author's note much more than the rest of the book. I suspect that Lisa Wingate isn't an author for me.
