I am curious about her parents and, if she has any, her siblings. Suppose this is the same Fee that is mentioned at the end of book one. Her name is Aoife, but friends call her "Fee". Wonder what she's doing in London and who she works for.
We meet Gil, and we see his point of view. He seems interested in a woman who was on stage. What happened to him? What caused his death and exile to a theater in London? He has come alive this year when an ung woman came to visit and explore the stage.
Fee thinks she can pass on her leaking as if it were a choice. But what if she's soul, and she really does have a choice?
Will she help Gil? Her mother warned her, but she didn't take it seriously.
Where she is now, she has to forget her family, such as her brothers and parents. However, we have some memories of her mom and Papa, and of her brother, Michael, and the twins. Will her siblings have Souler, or is it just women in the family?
It's getting more and more interesting as the story goes on. Will Fee finally know that she found her healing? Did he see her?
Why can souls travel centuries? But somewhat struggling in the 21st century with life once they run into their leeches?
Will Fee and Gil have a few children at some point? Will they be souls as well?
Will Fee free her leating? Will she join him once she does? She's trying to learn her soul's past. But is it a family business, or something else? Did her mother not get all the help, or did she not know how to bring her ghost to her, and that is why Fee and her sibling were living in Paris, France, in the 1700s?

This story is almost like a love affair between two visionary scholars, Daniel Kahneman and the late Amos Tversky. Their shared admiration and respect for one another, and opposite personalities, led them across the world from Israel, in the pursuit for knowledge.
The author notes the halo effect in which people see favourable attributes and let that impression impact the assessment of other attributes. Kahneman and Tversky later refer to this as Representativeness involving premature characterisation of an object or an individual.
While this is less plot driven than the author's other works The Blind Side, Moneyball, and The Big Short, it is still an endearing tale.

This is definitely a different plot for a cozy, but I really loved it. Yes, there is a murder, but it comes in later and the mystery of tracking down family and the story behind the necklace takes center stage. Honestly, I like the break from the familiar formula. The characters are fun as always, especially the new ones. And I might have cried (in a good way) through the last couple of chapters. Fans of the series will appreciate this one best, but they will love it.
Note: I received an ARC of this book.
