A review by melaniesreads
Lake Child by Isabel Ashdown
5.0
Where on earth do I start with this review ?? Lost memories, lost time, secrets, lies and an unreliable narrator are just the start of this terrific read. Then to throw in transcripts of a ghost writers interview leads you to another mystery.
The start was slightly confusing but then the protagonists start was and that just heightened the feeling of what the hell is going on. But it soon starts to become clear and before you know it you’ve nearly finished the book as it’s too damn good to put it down.
The setting was exquisite and so beautifully described and the characters wow. You can’t help but urge on Eva in her attempts to find out what happened that night and why her parents have kept her locked in the attic and away from her friends.
This had more twists than a child proof medication bottle top. I did guess one but the rest I was way off. This has a great mystery at its core but to me it was all the other little sub plots that gave this a well deserved five stars.
