I' m not usually a Kristin Hannah fan, but this looked intriguing so I thought I would give it a try. This is the story of a woman and her two grown daughters who don't feel like they know their mother at all. The only connection they have is the love of a man (the girl's father) and a fairy tale that the girls have been told over and over again throughout their childhood.
Eventually, the girls come to realize that the fairy tale is more than it seems. The story is really a retelling of their mother's life in Stalin- era Russia.
The depth of the characters and the relationship development between characters make this book well worth the effort.
