Nothing - because one of the family is a killer . . . As the leaves of autumn fall, Daisy Darker arrives at her grandmother's house for eightieth birthday celebrations. Seaglass, the Darker's ancestral home, is a crumbling Cornish house perched upon its own tiny private island. Every member of the family has their secrets. Nana, alone for so long. Daisy's absent father, Frank. Her cold-hearted mother, Nancy. Her siblings, Rose and Lily, and her niece, Trixie, full of questions and without a father of her own. Daisy has never had an easy relationship with her family, but some secrets are much darker than others. This will be a gathering that some of them won't remember. 'Compelling, confounding and absolutely delicious' - Lisa Jewell, bestselling author of The Family Upstairs
Soooo much fun!! Loved it so much! Deeply cared and had strong emotions for the characters (positive and negative) and was rooting and cheering for some and vexing others!! That is one of the things I love about Feeney, I feel like their talent for ensuring we really get to know the people in the novel so that we can really care about what happens to them and miss them when it ends, or cheer when they disappear. lol This one will have you guessing and picking the book or headphones back up even at midnight to read/listen just a little longer…
