The optimism of the early sixties, infused with the excitement of the space race and the menace of the Cold War, is filtered through the rich imagination of high-spirited eight-year-old Madeleine, who welcomes her family's posting to a quiet Air Force base near the Canadian border. Secure in the love of her beautiful mother, she is unaware that her father, Jack, is caught up in a web of secrets. When a local murder intersects with global forces, Jack must decide where his loyalties lie, and Madeleine will be forced to learn a lesson about the ambiguity of human morality—one she will only begin to understand when she carries her quest for the truth, and the killer, into adulthood twenty years later.

This is one of my favorite novels and I was thrilled to see this audiobook version (available 20 years after the original publication) which is narrated beautifully by the author. While this book is a complex murder mystery, it comes wrapped in the engrossing story of Madeleine McCarthy and her family as they move through the optimism of post-WWII Canada into the long stretch of the cold war. My highest recommendation.

I’ve been reading for over 50 years and I love novels. This is hands down one of the best stories I’ve ever read. I just listened to it for the first time and it’s still beautiful. It has everything I enjoy. A great story line with murder. The writing is better every time I read it. It’s a touching, real family saga. History. Love.
