A thoroughly enjoyable read. The main character, Lisa Reynolds, is a likeable and believable woman who is a witness to a scene that ends in a murder which changes Lisa’s life.
There is a lot of description which keeps you on the edge of your seat as you wonder what might happen. It is a beautiful story of love and loss.
I wanted to keep reading, picking it up each day was a pleasure.
My only real issues were that there were too many speech tags that became distracting and slightly annoying but not enough to put me off reading. I think removing some of these could make the book stronger.
Without wanting to give anything away, I also felt that the resolution was a packaged a little too neatly. It was reminiscent of a 70’s or 80’s crime shows. I think it could have benefitted from a little more grit at this point.
Overall I loved immersing myself in this book and the lives of the characters. I look forward to seeing what this talented author writes next.
