Thank you to NetGalley and HarperAudio for the Audio-ARC. An enjoyable work of modern/historical fiction in the vein of Fiona Davis or Kate Morton. I was especially intrigued by the use of dollhouses and miniatures as the catalyst for the story, which was made even more important by reading the afterword. The book takes us on a ride from a modern day special collections library in San Francisco back in time to WWI and places in-between. Strong female characters. As a librarian and archivist, I do take exception to the portrayal of the library and the actions of its leadership. While the plot relies upon a lot of coincidences, it still provided an entertaining read; and isn’t that the point?
