Review:
"Carolyn Hart's thoughtful, innovative mysteries make her, without a doubt, among the best writers living today."

You'll enjoy it. (Tony Hillerman)

Hart has created a fabulous two-in-one: an excellent mystery and the poignant memoirs of her heroine, Gretchen Grace Gilman...The obviously well-researched history draws the reader into this atypical whodunit. Characters are Steinbeck vivid, as is the sense of time and place. Hart masterfully portrays an American small town during WWII. Publishers Weekly (starred review)
[R]eaders...will be touched by Gretchen s bruising encounters with wartime morality and Hart s...rendition of rationing, manless households, and feminine gumption. Kirkus Reviews
In Letter From Home the scene of the crime is bygone days in small-town Oklahoma. It took me back to my own boyhood and just such a summer...You ll enjoy it. New York Times bestselling author Tony Hillerman"
