Continuing the saga that began in Red as a Rooster, Biscuit and her friends (and me too!) and the cat Marmalade uncover more ways the 200-year-old story of the founding of Martinsville is woven through their own lives. They find, too, that not all treachery is ancient. Not all murders are history.
Why does Sadie always wear yellow? Where is the hidden room? And why are the star-crossed lovers kept apart? Stewart's masterful weaving of this multi-generational story both fascinates and delights.
