This was an excellent book. It is dark, mysterious and takes the reader on a complete whirlwind of emotions. The chapters are really quite short. it isn't until chapter 10 that the investigation really picks up - secrets were revealed that really made me gasp.
This book discusses various issues relating to post partum depression, extra marital affairs, kidnapping, mental health issues, starting and raising a family. The class system is an element here too. The main female character, Anne has family money behind her, something which her husband, Marco never had. This issue is emphasised by the main plot of the story. Marco allows Anne to believe that she has committed an awful crime, something that should be unthinkable between man and wife.
