This book is the sequel to Through A Glass Darkly. It continues telling the story of Barbara and draws it all together some more. Barbara has already been through so much, but this story just continues her tale, which I was happy happened! The characters are as rich and bright in this book as they were in the first. And I was drawn in once again. The details make you feel like you can visualize it, which is something I love in a book. Historical Fiction.
