Fab book, hadn't seen the twist coming and loved it when it did. Stayed up late because I couldn't put it down!

Saffy and Tom haven’t been in their dream home, inherited from Saffy’s beloved Gran, very long before human remains are unearthed in their garden.
What ensues is a tense and often times heartbreaking search for the identity of the deceased, but is Saffy’s Gran involved, and how much does she truly remember?
This was my first Claire Douglas novel and to say I am now hooked would be an understatement. Her writing style just flows so effortlessly through the plot, all of her characters are believable and relatable, the the pace is fast with more twists than a cork screw!
I thoroughly enjoyed this novel and can’t wait to read more!

I loved this story right from the start. I like that it is pieced together through the eyes of the 5 main characters in both the present and the past. Sometimes you just find a book that resonates with you. I’m not totally sure whose story this was; at first I thought it was Saffy’s they I decided that it was Lorna’s or her mother Rose’s story to tell. But in the end it was all of their story. Loved the setting and the characters and will be looking for more books by Claire Douglas.

Olipas jännä! Kivan erilainen trilleri, kiinnostavat henkilöhahmot, hyvin soljuva juoni. Loppuun jäin ehkä kaipaamaan vielä jotain twistiä, mutta oli hyvä tämmöisenäänkin 😊

3.5 stars. A bit predictable, but a well-written story.
