Well this book had me all over the place, it started as a missing person case then turn into a murder investigation. This was not all though it then turned into a story about family secrets and how this is effecting the family and friends of those that they effect. This is set in a time period of when the UK is trying to recover from WW2 and the loses and grief which has swept the country. We follow a main character who has lost her fiancé, her mother is suffering mental illness and she is trying to move on with her life. It depicts not only her investigating the death of her friend however it is her story of recovery.
