Historical mystery...
Book title: People of the Book Author: Geraldine Brooks Brief Summary: Part mystery, part historical fiction, part adventure, part romance, part dysfunctional family. All you ever wanted in one book. Travel through five centuries tracing the path of a 15th century illuminated Hebrew manuscript and how it has survived those turbulent 500 hundred years. The book has secrets to tell and Hanna Heath, a rare book expert, leads us through the clues to solve the mysteries of the book. Great for book clubs –for anyone who loves books, for anyone who loves a fascinating mystery. The best read of the year – I give this a definite 5.
