|comment= I very much enjoyed this book. It was a really good read and one had to keep one's wits about one as to where and what the action was and by whom it was happening. It left questions unanswered like to what did the marks on the piece of bone relate and what happened to Amy when she disappeared with her sister Elizabeth. In spite of hurrying through the book because of excitment I was really sorry when I came to the end and I would have liked to know what happened to Mrs Ross and Parker. Did she go back to her husband? What happened to Line? In fact the characters were really well drawn and one felt they were real and as for the location of the book it was marvellouly drawn and the author's description of the country and the cold were marvellous.
I hope she writes another novel soon!
