I enjoyed the characters but the plot was a bit contrived in places. The main character . Mandy, was difficult to like and/or sympathise with and I'd occasionally get her and her niece (Ruth), and the niece's mother, Mathilda, mixed up. this is not so surprising as there were strong similarities between these characters and at times I thought they were supposed to merge together. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

How far should loyalty to a family member go? Is it healthy to perpetuate family secrets? This is a "thriller" in the sense that the events of the fateful night are not fully revealed until the last page. The author writes that she had difficulty with the plot, she wanted the focus to be more on the relationships in the novel, and I agree that the relationships were very compelling. The characters were interesting and believable. I enjoyed it a lot. ( )
