Trade Review"This is a superb novel. Don't miss it." -- William Martin, New York Times bestselling author of Cape Cod and The Lincoln Letter "Cabot laces her assured novel with Shakespearan overtones as the characters continually misconstrue one another's motives. From Franklin's intense intellectual curiosity to Anne's stubborn insistence on leading an independent life, this memorable cast makes for spellbinding reading." -- Booklist "[A] poignant take of love, survival, loyalty, and the meaning of family." 4.5 stars-Fantastic -- RT Book Reviews "An enticing read for history buffs...genuinely heart-wrenching." -- Publishers Weekly "Unforgettable." -- Shelf Awareness "[F]or all Franklin's genius, fortune, and increasing stature, he is not spared the trials of women, concerns for children, or the struggles between a father and son with political differences... [Cabot is] a gifted writer." -- Providence Journal
