Book Review: A Common Loss by Kirsten Tranter - Page 2

It is here where I will leave the reader to figure out exactly what mystery lies hidden within and beneath the words sealed in each hush-hush envelope. Ever so cleverly, author Kristin reveals the deeply concealed parts of Dylan’s own life and that of his kin. The book is long enough for readers to feel for each of the characters and from the early-on moment the reader finds that even the narrator has a shameful slip-up to hide, a personal treachery to keep buried, the tale has a definite foreboding quality. I would recommend this tale to anyone looking for a read where hidden transgressions can destroy, because in the end, most of us harbor similar sins.
