First book to be reviewed is The Drowning Tree by Carol Goodman
The Drowning Tree tells the story of Juno McKay as she searches to unravel the mystery surrounding the death of her friend, Christine. Throughout the novel, Goodman weaves together the present, the recent past of Juno's life, and the distant past of her college's founder. As Juno tries to discover the circumstances behind Christine's death, she explores not only her past, but delves into Christine's research and comes upon some startling information. Fans of Tracy Chevalier will love how Goodman is able to weave into The Drowning Tree the story of a (fictional) painting by the same name and the story of a stained glass window. The Drowning Tree makes an excellent choice for light reading and will be enjoyed by many mystery fans.
