"The Hydes' trip was a risky venture, and so is Michaels's novel. Not only must she capture another era and fill in answers history has left blank, she must also find a way to wring suspense from an adventure whose tragic end is predetermined. As if to add to the challenge, she tells the story from several points of view...She has taken material that could easily be turned into melodrama and spun from it an absorbing, affecting and beautifully written novel."Michaels, Lisa is the author of 'Grand Ambition A Novel' with ISBN 9780393322958 and ISBN 0393322955.
