This is the second in the series featuring sisters living in Tuscany, each of whom have a special gift. The story is told on multiple timelines and features as it’s central current timeline story the complicated relationship between one of the sisters and the son of a neighbouring family, one with which there is a long term feud. In the past, we see the story of a young woman who is forced into promising to marry a man old enough to be her father and her wish to escape. The timelines combine when one becomes aware of the other, using her gift to fathom out the events of the past.

Set in a beautiful backdrop and with a cast of characters who have developed from the first book the reader is immediately immersed into the Italian culture, seeing the feuds and complexities an old hatred brings to the current generation. Beautifully written also and with some interesting historic interest around the artworld and the theft of painting and works of art during the war.

Highly recommended and although could be read as a standalone I feel reading the first in the series to understand the background of the characters.
