Really good book; it covers the lives of three Irish women and where their stories lead. It takes place mostly in Ireland with a little bit in the United States. The main story starts in 1925, but the book starts in 1662, giving an intriguing glimpse of the history of the castle the women all have a history with. The book itself is in excellent condition, no bent pages or creased spine. The only flaw is the cover and first page both have a small tear at the bottom. I bought it like that. Other than that, I've read it once.
