3.5

Three Rawlins siblings, John, Sandra and Robby reunite at their childhood home (Teague House),  after the passing of their mother. Robby still lives on the property in a cottage, away from the house with his family, but from the get go we read that he seems to be having martial problems as his wife and kids are staying with his mother in law. Their Aunt Phil, has been taking care of their mother, so when she passes Phil lets the siblings know that she will be going on a never ending cruise to finally live her life. Sandra goes for a walk on the property, and that’s when she sees a finger in the ground. This is where the real mystery begins… because not only is there a body on the property, but also a grave to several others in the same location. Who did it? Did their parents have a sinister past? Why is there a new grave?

This book kept me interested the whole time. A couple characters I felt could be eliminated right away, so I really tried to pay attention to clues on the other characters. The book has a slow burn to it but keeps you interested to see where these bodies came from. Overall I really enjoyed the mystery of who did it. This book has several character POVs, but I felt it was very easy to keep track of. If your vibe is family secret thrillers, then this book is for you.
