Review


I really enjoyed this book, at the beginning it was quite slow but all of a sudden it kicks in and then you are hooked.

The book focuses on 3 main characters Cecilia, Rachel and Tess.

Cecilia is like Monica from friends, super organised. Everything has its own place (she even has an app on her iPhone in case she misses something)

Her daughter is slightly obsessed with historical events, (to the point where Cecilia and her husband think she may be autistic)
This months obsession is the Berlin Wall and Mrs organisation has an actual piece of the wall upstairs in a box in the attic.

While in the attic she accidently knocks over some of her husbands paperwork and finds a letter, addressed to her but only to be opened in the event of his death but he is very much still alive ........what would you do??

Tess lives with her husband and little boy, she also owns a company with her husband and her cousin Felicity


Felicity used to be fat, really fat but has now slimmed down and is skinny and beautiful, and in love with Tess's husband.

Rachel, she has a lovely son with a gorgeous grandson who she loves dearly but has just been told that they are moving to NewYork for 2 yrs and she is devastated.

All 3 stories although separate, entwine themselves very cleverly and reveal secrets and lies between family and friends.

I thoroughly enjoyed this and have recommended it to my mum to listen to (which is a very high accolade)
