About the author

Kathleen McGurl lives near the sea in Bournemouth, UK, with her husband and elderly tabby cat. She has two sons who are now grown-up and have left home. She began her writing career creating short stories, and sold dozens to women’s magazines in the UK and Australia. Then she got side-tracked onto family history research – which led eventually to writing novels with genealogy themes. She has always been fascinated by the past, and the ways in which the past can influence the present, and enjoys exploring these links in her novels.
When not writing or working at her full-time job in IT, she likes to go out running. She also adores mountains and is never happier than when striding across the Lake District fells, following a route from a Wainwright guidebook.

Wonderful Read. The characters were very well thought out, as were the many twists and turns of the tale. I enjoyed the author using parts of the dialect to make the story more believable.

Forgotten Secret. It was a wonderful book. Terribly sad James didn’t know the truth about his mom’s not knowing James didn’t die.

Historical Fiction Irish Mystery Split Time. The Forgotten Secret by Kathleen McGurl is a wonderful historical Novel of Ireland. It is told in two time periods by Clare in 2016 and Ellen in 1920. The characters are realistic and the settings well described so the reader will feel a part of the story. This book has so many interesting details of history, real life struggles, joys, tragedies, war, mysteries, even an element of genealogy. I received a complimentary copy of this book from Netgalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own. I appreciate the opportunity and thank the author and publisher for allowing me to read, enjoy and review this book.

Page Turner. I couldn’t put the book down!
