Booklist Review

Allie Kirkland's dream is to break into the film industry and follow in her father's footsteps to become a director, but she can't turn down an unexpected opportunity to step in front of the camera. Allie will play the part of Bonnie Rose, one of Wildwood's most mysterious residents, in a historical reenactment. Wingate (The Prayer Box, 2013) mixes past and present in this tale of romantic suspense as she immerses readers in the struggle-filled historical tale of Bonnie and Allie, her contemporary counterpart. Bonnie Rose contends with the burden of shame as she tries to make a life for herself and her young sister. Allie's fear of rejection could prevent her from finding true happiness. As the young women navigate their escalating challenges, each also faces the mystery of Wildwood. For her part, Allie makes a mission of clearing Bonnie Rose's name. Readers will love discovering the truth about the lives of these two strong women from vastly different times.--Richard, Carolyn Copyright 2010 Booklist

Library Journal Review

Allie Kirkland leaps at the opportunity to be a costume assistant in a docudrama about an abandoned Texas frontier settlement. Once at Wildwood, she discovers strange connections between herself and Bonnie Rose, an Irish schoolteacher who disappeared a century ago. If Allie can't solve the mystery, history may repeat itself and she might be the next to go missing. Wingate's tense plot keeps readers wondering what happened to Bonnie Rose until the surprising ending. They will also be able to deduce that faith in God can produce amazing results. VERDICT Well known for The Prayer Box, Christy Award nominee -Wingate scores again with a contemporary mystery that incorporates romance and history. It is also sure to appeal to fans of -Jennifer -Chiaverini's historical fiction (The Spy-mistress; Mrs. -Lincoln's Rival). (c) Copyright 2014.
