![]() When I first see that the dead are discussing the affairs of the living, I am dismayed, because the legendary Fannie Farmer has already done this in The Whole Town’s Talking. We have the graveyard crowd, for example, and since Everton, New Hampshire is such a tiny town, everybody knows everybody, dead or alive. There are enough points of view in this story to make your head spin. She hasn’t even returned for a visit, but now she has been summoned unequivocally her father is dying, and her mama wants her to come home. ![]() She has quietly left school without telling a soul back home. She went away to medical school, but was expelled for reasons that we don’t understand until later, and her healing touch is gone. My thanks go to Net Galley and Random House Ballantine for the review copy.Įmma Starling is our protagonist, and she was born with healing powers in her hands. ![]()
