   Aucun Actuellement, il n'y a pas de discussions au sujet de ce livre.   BooksInMirror | Feb 19, 2024 |   ) BridgetteS | May 14, 2022 | A private boarding school for girls in Austria is where all three of the female lead characters of this collection were sent by their families. Each one of the girls experienced something that impacts them and lingers long after they leave St. Cecilia’s School for Girls. Stayed up till 2am and continued reading in the dark when we lost electricity to find out how it all ends… What I liked: * RETRIBUTION by Lisa Jackson: Lucy and a pair of scissors may have saved her mother’s life. But, she can’t remember the details, or hasn’t been able to. She is a bit damaged, fearful, and anxious but then…she may have reason to. I really liked her daughter and her ex-husband, Ian, and wouldn’t mind hearing more about them in the future. * GHOSTS by Alexandra Ivy: Rayne was inconvenient so was sent away by her mother. I liked her strength and independence. I enjoyed the way she and Niko, her deceased boarding school roommate, worked together to find out what really happened to his sister. This one had me guessing. * ALONE by Lisa Childs: Erin was young when she and her beautiful older sister were kidnapped. She finally returns “home” to the scene of the crime for the funeral of her father. I had a feeling I knew who the bad guy was early on and was validated BUT there were many red herrings that could have been the baddie. I really liked Montego and the epilogue of this book. * I liked that all three stories overlapped * I enjoyed the past-present timeline of the story with flashbacks as it built suspense * I enjoyed the twists and not always knowing for sure who was the real bad guy…not till the end * I liked that the three women were strong, capable, educated, and did what needed to be done. What I didn’t like: * The traumas each woman experienced and how it impacted them * Who and what I was meant to – the evil people and what they did Did I enjoy this book? Yes Would I read more by these authors? Yes Thank you to NetGalley and Kensington-Zebra for the ARC – This is my honest review. 5 Stars ( ) CathyGeha | Feb 22, 2022 | aucune critique | ajouter une critique
St. Cecilia's School for Girls in Salzburg, Austria, is a haven for the daughters of the rich and famous. Here, scandals are buried and secrets hidden. But for three former students, evil is about to resurface... Lucy Champagne was sent to St. Cecilia's after her movie-star mother was brutally attacked by her sleazy boyfriend, Ray Watkins. Lucy's damning testimony landed Ray a 25-year sentence. But now, Ray is free. And he's going to find Lucy and make her pay, no matter how far and how fast she runs.... Rayne Rayne Taylor found unexpected happiness at St. Cecilia's, until her roommate, Natalie, committed suicide. Only when Rayne finds a box of mementoes from that time does she realize how wrong she may have been about Natalie's death - and how far someone will go to keep the truth hidden... Erin MacDonald remembers little about the long-ago night she and her sister, Anna Beth, were kidnapped. While Erin was found safe, Anna Beth vanished forever. Now Erin has reluctantly come back to the family estate, where Detective Rafe Montego hopes to finally crack the case. But, as flashes of Erin's memory reemerge, she learns how deep the danger goes... Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
