All for a Sister

June 15, 2014

Celeste DuFrane has enjoyed a comfortable life in 1920s Hollywood owing to her father's experiments with film, but she is shocked to learn that her large inheritance from her mother is to be shared with the woman who was convicted of murdering Celeste's baby sister two decades earlier. Dana Lundgren, who has spent most of her life in prison for a crime she did not commit, is as baffled as Celeste as to why she's a beneficiary. But what the two women discover in the journals of Celeste's mother will forever change how they see themselves and each other. VERDICT Deftly intertwining the 1920s plotline with the diary entries, Pittman's third series outing (All for a Song; All for a Story) is filled with family drama, suspense, and enough twists and turns to keep readers engrossed until the very end. This tale of truth and forgiveness will attract fans of Francine Rivers, Rosamunde Pilcher, and those who enjoy family sagas.
