Letter from a Stranger by Barbara Taylor Bradford

Letter from a Stranger

A Letter From a Stranger

Justine Nolan opens a letter addressed to her mother - that indicates that the grandmother they thought died 10 years ago is still alive. There was a rift between Mother and Grandmother - and Justine's mother cut Gram out of all their lives. She told her children - Justin and her twin brother, Richard - that Gram had died. 

Justine flies to Istanbul to try to find her Gram and to get answers as to why her mother declared Gram dead. There is a huge twist at the end. It is a good book. Didn't expect the twist but it did add to the book and made it more interesting. I really enjoyed reading the book although I felt at times that her English was just a bit off - like a sentence should have been written in a different way. Maybe it was just me - but I did have to re-read a few sentences as they just seemed off. Still, I think the story is a good story.
