The Ghostwriter by Julie Clark
4.0
dark medium-paced

Olivia has an estranged relationship with her family dad, a prolific horror writer. He wants to write a memoir and hires her. Olivia accepts the job because of her financial situation. 

I really enjoyed seeing the reunion of Olivia with her father and how this dug up the past of what happened with her now deceased uncle and aunt. The story started a bit slow for me but I was curious about what happened. 

Clark did a good job with the dual timeline and how the story was revealed. The story addressed so many complex relationships between parent and child, and competition between sibiljgs. I really enjoyed seeing Olivia's growth journey through the story. 

Thank you @bookmarked for a copy of this.
