The Midnight Hour is set in Notting Hill in 1998. Maggie’s model mother Dee Dee goes missing one night and she is left alone with her brother Kit. She meets Wolf, who she befriends and protects her and stalling her from calling the Police to say her mother is missing. 

Maggie now an author living in Paris gets a phone call from Wolf saying that they are digging up the garden of their mother’s house and something has been revealed. What secrets are about to be revealed. 

This is a beautifully written novel, but I am afraid I’m one out of a minority here. But this style of writing wasn’t for me personally. I enjoyed the first part but then I found it too get long winded and didn’t get to a point and I found myself losing interest. 3 stars from me.
