I was intrigued by the storyline’s premise. Unfortunately, For some reason, this book never drew me in. I found myself skimming in some parts as I found the story to be very slow and I was not drawn to the characters. I know I’m likely in the minority in my opinions and that other readers will surely love this book. Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for an advanced reader’s copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

This is such an interesting mystery and I loved the idea of dual timelines whilst the main character, Edie, is struggling with dementia and her memory in the present. I thought this was a really unique way to see things unravel and for secrets to be revealed. This was truly a great book with an original idea.

A great novel! I enjoyed the multiple timelines and the story was so well written. Thanks to NetGalley for the ARC. Five stars!

Edie is out walking when she spies a school friend, Lucy, looking as young and beautiful as ever. But how is that possible, when Edie is in her 80’s, and Lucy disappeared in 1951? Set in the past and present, Edie, struggling with dementia keeps revisiting that early time wondering what really happened with Lucy. Well written, and original, this is a great read.
