Who is the girl in the mist? What is the thirteenth tale? Whose bones are buried in the library? What is the true story of Vida Winter? Margaret sets out to learn her story, but the truth is not revealed until the end of the tale.

This was a page-turner for several members of our group. It reads like a nineteenth century novel, and there are references to Jane Eyre throughout the book. A very good read, especially on a rainy day.

We all enjoyed this book. It's written in an easy to read, conversational style. The charaacters are lovable and come to life well in the story, and the author is a great storyteller. An all around good read.
