A man moves his family to a small island following the suicide of his sister to take care of his niece and the house she left for him. The wife is a Dr. Who is struggling with the move. The niece is an angry teenager who is struggling with grief and coming to terms with the invasion of this new family.
The family has moved here with quite a few skeletons in their closet as well which have the wife, Dr.Sadie in a spin.
The book is written through multiple perspectives that change in each chapter. The book starts off really strong but then I felt the writer didn’t know how to handle the million plot points that she had laid out and it got a bit sloppy.
One twist that is actually crucial to the story was revealed wayyyy too early so by the time the actual climax hit where it should’ve ideally been revealed, I was not at all surprised.
Also, there wasn’t a single likable character in the book. Not even in a ‘what a cool villain’ sorta way.
I still won’t say to skip it. It does keep you guessing and wanting to turn the page.
