Review by
Forty years ago, Jo Hamilton, a young PC at the time is called to a domestic disturbance which turns into a house fire and death of the parents of Holly and Daisy. The two girls are put into a Childrens Home, with Daisy being adopted and Holly left in the system. The girls are denied any contact. Holly disappears from the Childrens Home and Daisy has been wondering all these years about what happened to her. Forty years on, just before she retires, Jo Hamilton is called to a site where bones are found, and is determined to find a resolution for her sake, as well as to Daisy about what really happened to Holly.
A cleverly written piece, Emily Gunnis, structures the story over several timelines and from different character points of view. The plot tackles sisterly bonds, deceit, friendship, guilt, abuse and secrets and builds up to a dramatic conclusion. With several guesses over who the guilty party was, I really enjoyed the suspense and the clues finally falling into place.
