Homecoming
by Kate Morton
Christmas Eve 1959 at Halcyon, the estate of the Turner family in South Australia, is the site of a terrible tragedy.
Mid-December 2018, Jess Turner-Bridges is rushing home to Sydney, Australia from London, England where she has been living and working for the past 20 years. Her beloved grandmother, Nora, has had a fall and is in intensive care. As Nora's next of kin, Jess needs to be home.
The circumstances surrounding Nora's fall and comments Nora makes in her confused state, cause Jess, a journalist, to question what has been going on and what secrets Nora has been keeping. As she tries to figure things out, the connections between the terrible tragedy in 1959 and Nora and Jess' life become clear.
I will admit I figured out one of the "big" twists quite early on, but it did not take away from the enjoyment of the novel. The how of what had happened was still a revelation.
