Lavender and Marigold are sisters. Lavender can see life and death while Marigold writes up the stories. Each chapter is told from a different character. This is what I loved most about the book. Not only does Clinton write wonderful character that you can attach yourself too the research is remarkable. Watching the girls grow up through life was interesting they had to adjust to a lot of different things. The tales of myths and the twists and turns will keep you turning the pages in this wonder
