Continuing in my quest to read all of Ogilvie's works, next up was 'The Face of Innocence." Odd piece, but one that grabbed me oddly and i cranked through it quicker than normal. A seemingly happy housewife is jolted into confronting a horrible past that she has kept from her family and all who now matter to her....and the threat is real that her world could literally be turned upside-down......lots of sappy emotional stuff that Ogilvie does fairly well, but also a lot of dumb decisions by our main character that made me often say out loud 'Just tell him!" But then there would be no need for the book. The end takes an odd unexpected twist for me which is always a good thing.....but to me, the lesson is that the longer you hold something in, the more dangerous it becomes and the more difficult it is to resolve. Enjoyed it way more than i thought, especially looking at my 'glamorous' cover (A huge pet peeve of mine!!!!). Sadly, Maine was only mentioned 2-3 times in the entire book....BOO....no one does Maine quite like Elisabeth Ogilvie! There are other Maine-themed Ogilvie books still to be read on my shelf......i survived. ( )
