The FMC’s (Emma) parents were murdered when she was a teen, and she was the prime suspect. She didn’t do it, and is worried one of her sisters did but doesn’t want to know. They all lie to protect each other.
Years later, the sisters are estranged. Emma is married with a baby on the way, when her husband loses his job and the house they were planning to buy, along with their savings. As a last resort, they move back into Emma’s childhood home where her parents were murdered. The sisters return, worried what Emma may find. Secrets are exposed as Emma tries to figure out what really happened to her parents.
I really enjoyed the mystery and intrigue of this book. It was well written and had me staying up late to get to the conclusion. I liked the multiple POVs, and that it alternated between past and present to give the full story.
