Allie Kirkland leaps at the opportunity to be a costume assistant in a docudrama about an abandoned Texas frontier settlement. Once at Wildwood, she discovers strange connections between herself and Bonnie Rose, an Irish schoolteacher who disappeared a century ago. If Allie can't solve the mystery, history may repeat itself and she might be the next to go missing. Wingate's tense plot keeps readers wondering what happened to Bonnie Rose until the surprising ending. They will also be able to deduce that faith in God can produce amazing results.
VERDICT Well known for The Prayer Box, Christy Award nominee Wingate scores again with a contemporary mystery that incorporates romance and history. It is also sure to appeal to fans of Jennifer Chiaverini's historical fiction (The Spymistress; Mrs. Lincoln's Rival).
