Lucy Goodwin dreamed of having a loving mother in law, instead she got Dianna
Dianna is nothing if not practical and wants her children to understand not everyone is a privileged as she is
Ollie and Nettie are Diannas devoted children but cannot understand why she won’t help them when money is tight
This “whodunit” explores the complicated relationships of a well off family and what money can truly drive people to do
The exploration of Dianna throughout the book builds a strong and complicated character who’s only desire is to do the right thing by her family
Nothing at all to dislike, an easy 5 stars

complex and difficult relationships
Dual points of view snd going back and forth between past and present
Little clues sprinkled in but kept you guessing. I did not predict the ending ar all
Wonderful , deep takes on complexities of relationships as well as mental health
Seriously this is soooo good and I recommend everyone to read this!
