Hi Seaside, Bizibee and Joff,

I love Anita Shreve's books. Some of them are quite slow moving, but very atmospheric. She writes a lot about a particular area in New England. I have just ordered Testimony from Amazon, so when I have read it, I let you know my thoughts.

Joff, the house in The Pilot's Wife and Bodysurfing is in several of her other books (though I can't remember which ones atm!), one is about the original family mentioned in Bodysurfing, and another is set in the 30s.
