For some reason, I found this hard to get into and a bit slow (unlike The Good Sister). Maybe because the characters are not endearing at all. But I liked the multiple POV and bouncing between past and present. So much mystery, but a sayisfying conclusion.

This book really got to my emotions. I was angry and upset and supportive and afraid. A really nuanced take. And whew, does Ms. Hepworth know how to write mother drama.
