REVIEWS

A spellbinding novel with characters who get under your skin and into your heart. Loved it.

Beautifully written and comes together in a perfect ending.

The mystery of Agatha Christie and the suspense of a Gillian Flynn thriller.

A beautifully crafted, emotive story with characters to love and loathe. A uniquely satisfying ending that has also left me somewhat bereft as I want to stay in touch with and watch so many of them grow.
