Firstly, how on earth. How on EARTH does Alice Feeney keep track of all of these twists, turns and things to uncover?! This has to be her best book yet? She’s the master of pulling the metaphorical rug out from under a readers feet and making you double-take and read back a few lines to clarify that you are in fact reading the most twistiest twist ever written.
I thought I had this figured, the secrets, the unravelling, the whodunnits, but Alice Feeney once again is far too smart and intricate for it to ever be that simple. I raced through this, it was almost impossible to put it down, I had to know what on earth was going on.
Short chapters, multiple points of view, brilliant canine characters (Dickens you legend), irritating human characters, and plenty of reveals. The perfect mystery!
About the Book
Sometimes bad things happen to good people, so good people have to do bad things.
Twenty years after a baby is stolen from her push-chair, a woman is murdered in a care home. The two crimes are somehow linked, and a good bad girl may be the key to discovering the truth.
Edith may have been tricked into a nursing home, but at eighty-years-young, she’s planning her escape. Patience works there, cleaning up mess and bonding with Edith, a kindred spirit. But Patience is lying to Edith about almost everything.
Edith’s own daughter, Clio, won’t speak to her. And someone new is about to knock on Clio’s door . . . and their intentions aren’t good.
With every reason to distrust each other, the women must solve a mystery with three suspects, two murders, and one victim. If they do, they might just find out what happened to the baby who disappeared, the mother who lost her, and the connections that bind them.
