Coming to Find You has two very distinct timelines. In the present day, Nancy has suffered a huge tragedy in her family and she flees to Tall Chimneys, the house in Devon that belonged to her grandmother and which Nancy remembers from her youth. The other thread is set during World War II when Elizabeth is running Tall Chimneys as a boarding house and finds herself contributing more to the war effort than she expected.

As I say, two very distinct timelines and what links them is the house. As the story progresses the two strands become a bit more intertwined but still feel quite separate for much of the book. Despite that, I have to say that I did find both to be enthralling and this is a really engaging read overall. To be honest, I wouldn't expect anything else from Jane Corry whose books I always enjoy. This one fits into the psychological thriller genre but is also a domestic drama. Nancy has to keep her wits about her to deal with the aftermath of what happened to her family and Elizabeth is in a similar position with her secret war work and some unexpected events that happen to her during that time.

With the historical aspect this felt very different to Corry's previous novels and I liked that about it. I liked the combination of the two stories and the odd cliffhanger here and there kept me racing through. It's an easy read and one which never failed to keep me wanting to read on and find out more about Nancy and Elizabeth. Coming to Find You is an enjoyable and appealing read. ( )
