The Marsh King's Daughter by Karen Dionne

 My Rating: 4.9

Helena has two grown daughters, loves her husband, goes picking in the forest to collect berries for the artisan jams she sells and by all appearances, has a peaceful normal life. Then her father escapes from a nearby prison and we find out her history that no one else knows. Her mother was kidnapped by her father and two years later birth to her in a remote cabin where she was raised with no concept that her 'family' was anything but normal.

This had me completely memorized throughout. The unfolding through flashbacks of how she was raised and how her current completely separate idyllic life came to be was beautifully told and really made you think about how all of this could come to be. Riveted. Will definitely read more by this author.
