A gem you won’t want to miss!
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 3 August 2022
Whilst I’ve never visited the rural enclave of Foster, Rhode Island., the authors prose – which flows as beautifully as the Ponaganset River – easily conjured up images of the surrounding historic landmarks and scenic views overlooking Etta’s Fishing Ground. My imagination went into overdrive visioning plates of delicious antipasto served up in the congenial atmosphere of Sal’s Italian Deli! But all is not as it seems in this small, rural setting.
It's easy to make assumptions about the characters introduced in the opening chapters of this multi-faceted tale set in the 60s/70s era.
I loved the character of Etta from the off; beautiful, intelligent, sassy and strong willed – you think you know exactly where the story is headed but you cannot even begin to second guess this exceptionally well-crafted tale by author Eva Pasco. This is a story not to be missed! I highly recommend.
