Open House
by Katie Sise
10 years ago, Emma disappeared. Many believed it was suicide, however Emma's younger sister Hayley has always been convinced this was not the case. When a bracelet is found near where Emma went missing, the case is opened back up.
The story consists of a few main characters:
- Hayley (Emma's sister),
- Dean - Hayley's fiance
- Josie and Noah a married couple who were Emma's friends at college
- Brad - Hayley's medical college tutor
- Priya - Brad's wife.
The story is told in short chapters from the viewpoints of Hayley, Priya and flashbacks to Emma 10 years ago when she was in college.
I just felt this book was a bit bland/meh to be honest. It was so obvious pretty quickly who the perpetrator was and even though it was a relatively short book, it was so dragged out. Fillers of irrelevant detail were all too frequent, as were the words "incredible" and "incredulous". The story was pretty bizarre and unbelievable and I didn't particularly warm to any of the characters at all. The policy/detectives were barely mentioned and then suddenly they popped up to say they'd solved the case near the end.
I'm afraid this just wasn't my cup of tea.
