This is the third novel in the Mallen triology. In this one, we have a few characters left from the previous ones.. as death and tragedy seems to follow the Mallens and their loved ones very closely. This novel has Barbara who is married to Dan Bensham, the never dying Anna Brigmore (now Bensham) and Barbara's true love, Michael.

The tragedy that befell Barbara and Michael's relationship in the Mallen Girl has had serious consequences on all involved and the story carries in to this one. This novel explores the world of cheating spouses and true love that is requitted too late. Spouses and children alike are hurt and damaged by it. Anna Brigmore is standing by with a disapproving eye as always, but she undergoes some unhappiness herself as her husband passes away from the shock of scandal that is occurring under their noses.

Meanwhile, while hearts are breaking left and right, Barbara's young sons, Jonathon, Benjamin, and Harry are growing up only to be faced with World War One. Are they the last of the Mallens? Will these young men survive the Mallen curse? Will their mother ever know true happiness? Truly, a dramatic page turner that will keep you up into the wee hours of the morning.

I highly recommend that readers read the first two Mallen books before this one.

I liked this book it was much better than the last one. I like the spirit of Hannah. I am glad I didn't have to read much more about Barbara. She was self centered spoiled rotten brat, even in her adult hood.This is the type of book you can read in a day. I am glad that Ben and Hannah found each other.
