4.5 stars. Another solid read from Sally Hepworth. She is great with her twists and turns! Rachel and Tully’s father announces he’s marrying Heather, a woman a couple of years younger than them. At the same time, their mother is experiencing profound dimmentia and is living in a nurse facility. Secrets will be revealed, and Hepworth will leave you guessing until the very end! Excellent as an audiobook!

Thank you to NetGalley for the advance reader audio copy of this book. Loved the story, was not thrilled with the ending. This book addresses a lot of trigger topics including abuse, kleptomania and dementia. The story is thrilling and I like the way Hepworth gives 3 of the main characters voices during different parts of the book. 4 stars

It’s almost a cliche, a man marrying a woman the same age as his daughters. The only fly on the ointment is that Stephen already has a wife, still she’s in an assisted living facility doe people with dementia; it shouldn’t be that had to get a divorce. Rachel and Tully are sure that Heather, their father’s paramour is nothing more than a gold digger and they don’t intend to sit by and let her, and their father, disrespect their mother.But Heather has her own reasons for wanting to be married to Stephen; everyone in this book has secrets and no one is what they seem
