I really enjoyed this - an interesting reflection on family history and connection and how that relates to who we are and how we experience the world. The shift between viewpoints, and the past and present was done well. I liked the inclusions of exerts from the true crime novel. 

Whilst I didn’t guess the ending entirely, the Nora/Polly plot line was very obvious. I also thought it lacked some closure in regards to Nora, and they all moved on VERY quickly regarding the truth, which caused massive shifts in their personal identifies/the core of who they were - this didn’t come across in writing.
