Upon reading the blurb of this book I was unsure what to expect as chapters cover a time period between 1920 and 1940 when war began. I’d never heard of St Kilda but I like the way the book flits between current day and the past through the mother’s eyes.
In contrast to what is happening to Fred in the current day it’s like reading 2 different stories that will eventually entwine (I hope!).

The one thing I didn’t like in the sneak peek was the letter Fred wrote to his uncle. I felt it was overly descriptive and long winded while not adding anything to the story. Luckily the story then turned to Rachel Anne which quickly grasped my attention once more and does make me want to read more.

All in all an interesting read which I would like to find out the ending of.
