Description The Distant Hours by Kate Morton 3.85 of 5 stars 3.85 · rating details · 38,405 ratings · 4,982 reviews Edie Burchill and her mother have never been close, but when a letter arrives one Sunday, marked with the return address of Millderhurst Castle, Kent, Edie begins to suspect that her mother's emotional distance masks an old secret. I welled up when this book ended & not just because I hated to see it end. One could weep over the sad lives of the 3 Blythe sisters, now elderly, & living with secrets that are beautifully & gradually revealed. The story jumps from the 1990's in London to the Milderhurst Castle during W.W.II and the present. When Edie Burchill encounters the 3 elderly sisters she is drawn into a family of secrets, whose "distant hours" are simply a wonder to read.
