I recommend this book if you like:
-mystery, thrillers
-slow pace
-family roots and past events
The story is set in the UK and Ireland. Jo escapes from her husband with her daughter Elise due to a custody battle. A strange women threatens Jo and her family saying Max, the husband, has something of hers that she wants back.
The story came together really well at the end. All the mysteries solved and wrapped up neatly in a satisfactory way.
The characters were extremely well developed and kept you guessing about who to trust throughout the book.
The downside for me was the pace of the book was too slow until the last hundred pages and also it is written in third person which I find more difficult to connect with.
