A moving, touching story. All the characters were believable and sympathetically portrayed. The style was engaging with a well paced plot and unusual structure.

Brilliantly written, a bit harrowing but very good. Slow in the middle. Good analysis of the effects of murder on a family. Thought provoking.

Review by Andover Library
found it a very moving, emotional story well written with depth to the characters and how they coped with their lives afterwards. Difficult start but well worth persevering.

Enjoyed by everyone in the group; a couple read it twice and both said they never do that and on a second read found things they had missed.
