In her new book, "The Inn at Hidden Run," Olivia Newport uses two places in time to tell her story. Readers meet Jillian, her father, Nia, and Meri in a contemporary timeframe; and Eliza in the Yellow Fever Epidemic of 1878. Each timeframe is compelling and draws the reader in. As the story unfolds, readers are taken on a journey that delves into a family tree that pulls so much together. Be sure to pay attention to the time change so you don't get confused.
Wouldn't it be great to study geneology and uncover secrets and truths of the past? Take the time to meet Eliza, a woman who worked tirelessly in Memphis to help those afflicted with Yellow Fever, and remember, the time was 1878. Find out why it is so difficult for Meri after she flunks out of medical school and why it is important for the others to help her. Take the time to unravel the story and find the answers.
I really enjoyed this book because of the complexity of time presented. Genealogy fascinates me, and following the threads here was really fun. Thank you to Barbour Publishing for my review copy. I enjoyed reading the book and writing my review.
