The End of Longing is a thrilling, bitter-beautiful novel which skillfully explores troubled identity and complex motives. Frances, a young New Zealand woman, is laid to rest in an unmarked grave in Jamaica in 1894. Her enigmatic husband, the Rev. William Hammond, cannot be found. Reports are later sent to her brothers alleging fraud and, perhaps, murder.
