*ROOM AND BOARD INCLUDED *
Una Richardson's heart is broken after the death of her mother. Seeking a place to heal, she responds to an advertisement and steps into the rich, comforting world of Elspeth McKenzie.
But Elspeth's home is not as it safe as it seems.
Kathryn, her cold and bitter daughter, resents Una's presence. But more disturbing is the evidence suggesting two girls lived here before. Two girls who ended up dead.
And now she sleeps in the same bed as they did.
Why will the McKenzies not talk about them?
What other secrets are locked inside this house? Can these girls lead Una to the truth?
This is one exciting, twisted thriller that keeps you on the edge of your seat. When I thought I knew what was happening and had it all sussed, I was wrong. You are brought into this story slowly, gently and carefully- with misdirection and red herrings littered throughout.
There was a massive shock mid-way through that really did surprise me, very clever by the author to keep us readers on our toes like that. I don’t want to say much as I think it is better to discover naturally.
With characters you will love to hate, this is a book I will highly recommend time and time again. A true page turner, you will not want to put this book down until the very end.
