A chilling debut packed with twists & turns.

I love the premise of this novel, it was an interesting unique story, split between to timelines present-day and 16 years earlier when the girls went missing. It kept me guessing until the very end.

The relationship Leah had with her son Luke is so heartwarming and Bunty was a fabulous stand out character smart and funny she provided the perfect tonic for the unsettlings, disturbing events happening to Leah.

It missed out on 5⭐because it was a slow burner, to begin with, although the pace picks up in the second half.

Overall, a creepy debut well worth a read for all psychological thriller fans!

A huge thanks to Katya Ellis & Quercus Books for gifting me a copy in return for an open & honest review.
