A review by jennilathrop
Leave the Lights On by Liv Andersson

dark mysterious sad fast-paced

• Loveable characters? It's complicated

4.0

This was a pretty standard mystery. Andersson is a good story teller and weaves the past and present together really well. The story is fairly standard with a few red herrings that are nicely dealt with. The end was a quieter end than expected and I was surprised by the choice. For future me who forgets how these things end:

Grace is Luke's sister and the one kidnapping the kids. In the end, Beatrice fakes her own death and she and Grace escape to take on the identities of two of the women who died at the asylum on the island.
