The novel brings the story of Isabel, a young single woman, living in the house of her parents on the countryside, while her two brothers live in the city. Her live changes, when Eva, the lover of her oldest brother needs a place to stay for a while. Both women are total opposites in terms of attitude, discipline and enjoyment of life. This leads to the expected frictions and tensions. Van der Wouden is an excellent writer, especially because of her good pace in releasing information about the characters, and managing the introduction of new elements that build up to unexpected plots twists. Much more is happening below the surface and revealed near the end of the novel.
It's entertaining and interesting.
