Will we learn more about Billie? I'm not that far into the book, but I'm trying to figure out all the family dynamics. and how to say Dom's children's names. I know it told us how, and I even made a screen shot of the page.

You are going to learn a lot more about a lot of people :)
Who else is reading this one? pr am I super slow? Because I can't say I was shocked, but man, that Richard!

I read it previously----it was quite a story.
I finished reading it, Although, I am disappointed in the book and relieved the agony of reading is over. I felt no connection to the characters and the relationships were just as confusing as the treasure hunt. I gave it three stars.
Dawn, I feel much the same as you. I'm not sure the last few chapters matched the Nell character.
Tiffany wrote: "Dawn, I feel much the same as you. I'm not sure the last few chapters matched the Nell character."I agree Tiffany. I hoped Nell's character would develop into a strong female. I also thought Cora was a mess and wished she would have grown by the end of the novel.
Cora, I am so disappointed in that character. But I do wonder if her character may be a perfect example of some women from that era?
Oddly enough, the Billie character was the only character that seemed "true."
I agree Tiffany , Billie was the only character that seemed genuine and remained in character throughout the book. Cora may have been a product of her time and I wonder if she was completely loyal to Frank.
