I absolutely loved this I have never read anything by Ruth Hogan before but this was so refreshing and such a sweet story.
Madame Burova is a fortune teller who wants to retire but she has one last task related to her work, she has two envelopes to deliver to someone whose life will be changed forever by their contents.
Billie the recipient is led on a journey into the past to find out the truth of her background but in helping Billie Madame Burova is also helping herself to lay down the burdens and unanswered questions of her own past.
The story spans nearly fifty years and is told with great skill between the past and the present.
The characters were all flawed, very human and endearing which I really enjoyed.
Whimsical and a great plot made this a real treat to read.
This is womens fiction at its finest and will definitely be checking out some of her other work now.
