Thanks to Penguin Random House for this ARC in lieu of a truthful unbiased review ~~

During a routine trip Nora finds her sister Rachel brutally murdered in her Marlow country home. Having a vast distrust of the local authority Nora remains to seek the killer.

As a debut novel this one was very well written. It is easy to become involved with our protagonist and be carried away page by page. There are subtle indicators very early in the novel pointing you towards the murderer - but are you correct? You read on to find out. Then you question your murder solving abilities. More than one person could be responsible. Many are suspected - some are cleared - are you correct in your prediction?

Great suspense, with a surprise ending.

This is an author to watch.

If I were ever murdered, SLIGHT SPOILER ALERT- I would hope that my sister (if I had one) worked as hard to find my killer as Nora does. At times she does come across a bit odd,and I found myself wondering why the police are so patient with her. Kept me guessing.

When Nora visits her sister in the countryside, she finds her sister has been the victim of a brutal murder. She decides to stay and find out who murdered her sister. I found this book to be very atmospheric and suspenseful. It was well-written and kept me guessing. It switches back and forth between the past and present. The ending had a nice twist and was a real surprise. This book was the author's debut and I look forward to reading her 2nd book, A Double Life. I would recommend this one to those who love mystery and suspense books.

I liked it! Nice twist at the end. I didn't see it coming and I like to be surprised.
