Publisher's Summary
England, 1959: Laurel Nicolson is 16 years old, dreaming alone in her childhood tree house during a family celebration at their home, Green Acres Farm. She spies a stranger coming up the long road to the farm and then observes her mother, Dorothy, speaking to him. And then she witnesses a crime.
Fifty years later, Laurel is a successful and well-regarded actress, living in London. She returns to Green Acres for Dorothy’s 90th birthday and finds herself overwhelmed by memories and questions she has not thought about for decades. She decides to find out the truth about the events of that summer day and lay to rest her own feelings of guilt. One photograph, of her mother and a woman Laurel has never met, called Vivian, is her first clue.
The Secret Keeper explores longings and dreams, the lengths some people go to fulfill them, and the strange consequences they sometimes have. It is a story of lovers, friends, dreamers and schemers, play-acting, and deception told against a backdrop of events that changed the world.

Enjoyable Read
I enjoyed this book very much. I found the twists in the plot held my interest and the fact that it was told partly during wartime was also enjoyable. It took a bit to get into it but one I was I was hooked.

Can't get enough of Kate Morton's stories
This is the third of Miss Morton's books that I've read. There is such a richness to the characters and their circumstances that one feels as if you are actually there with them. While I have been disappointed having to leave the story as the book concludes, I know I have her next book waiting. Also of great importance has been the superb narration by Caroline Lee.
