Journal Entry 1 by picafinda on Sunday, February 10, 2013
It started with a letter... Edie Burchill and her mother have never been close, but when a long lost letter arrives with the return address of Milderhurst Castle, Kent, printed on its envelope, Edie begins to suspect that her mother's emotional distance masks an old secret.
Evacuated from London as a thirteen year old girl, Edie's mother is chosen by the mysterious Juniper Blythe, and taken to live at Millderhurst Castle with the Blythe family.
Fifty years later, Edie too is drawn to Milderhurst and the eccentric Sisters Blythe. Old ladies now, the three still live together, the twins nursing Juniper, whose abandonment by her fiance in 1941 plunged her into madness.
Inside the decaying castle, Edie begins to unravel her mother's past. But there are other secrets hidden in the stones of Milderhurst Castle, and Edie is about to learn more than she expected. The truth of what happened in the distant hours has been waiting a long time for someone to find it...

Journal Entry 3 by Iriascible at A Coruña, A Coruña Spain on Wednesday, March 6, 2013
I've found the book this morning when I was leaving the school of Languages. At first I thought someone had forgotten it or maybe it belonged to the library. When I looked closer I saw the bookcrossing label and I was doubting about taking it home or not, finally I did it :).
I'll start to read it as soon as possible, and then I'll let it be free to find a new temporary owner.

Este libro me lo dio una compañera de trabajo, lo encontró en una biblioteca de A Coruña y me lo pasó, porque ella no lee en inglés. Me está gustando, ya había leído otro libro de esta autora, pero traducido al castellano. Mucho mejor en inglés, hay muchos matices difíciles de traducir. Tengo pensando liberarlo en Tailandia.

A colleague gave me this book, it was found in a library in A Coruña (Spain). I will release it in Thailand.
