I enjoyed this a lot more than I thought I would. I'm not really a "ghost story" fan, but this was done very well.
Following two POV's and timelines, the two main characters Viv (1982) and Carly (2017), are aunt and niece. Viv disappeared in 1982, and in 2017 Carly is looking into the disappearance.
The pacing here was almost perfect, each change in POV offering just enough to keep the plot moving while peeling back the layers of the characters and the depth of the story and how everything was woven together.
It was fun and I binged it in less than a day. Worth the time to read. Now I'm looking into the author's other works.
