Thanks to publishers and NetGalley for ARC.
First publication I have read by this author and wouldn't hesitate to read another.
Felt that it took a little while to get going, but once it did it gathered pace.
Saw through a couple of the twists of which there were many.
Remember things are not always as they may first appear.

Thank you for letting me read this book. An intriguing read and it took me a while to figure out the twist! Recommend this book.

I found this difficult to get into but as the story progressed it became more interesting. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it and definitely recommend it.

Oh this is a fabulous book! It was full of suspense and I never guessed the ending even though I invariably do. Great writing style by this author, and it kept my interest all the way. Highly recommended.
Thanks to NetGalley, the publisher and author for an advance copy in exchange for an honest review.

Maggie wakes up from a coma with no recollection of wahat has happened. The police inform her that she was involved in a car accident and her daughter died. She is devastated and tries desperately to remember what happened and whether she was at fault. Her world is falling apart before her eyes, her husband Sean has disappeared and she discovers the house they lived in is no longer theirs. Her road to recovery is slow and tortuous. She begins to discover some things about her past which are upsetting and people whom she meets or once knew are not necessarily who they seem.
I found this compelling reading with some interesting twists, I’d really recommend giving it a go.

I wasn't really sure what to expect from this book and thought it would be a standard thriller.

A child dies in an accident and her mother wakes up from a coma without being able to remember what happened and whether she caused her childs death or not.

WOW! I was so surprised! I was drawn in straight away and the shocks (no spoilers in this review) genuinely DID shock me. Usually I find these kind of books pretty predictable but on this occasion I really didn't see it coming. Really enjoyed this book and it's the first I have read by this author - I would definitely read more.

All in all, recommended for any fans of crime and thrillers.

This was a story about a mother’s love for her children. A bad move one evening cost her daughters her life, and a grandmother who stood by and could have helped her grandchild but let her die.
The letters written to her mother by her daughter were very touching and quite moving, not realising her daughter had written them while in care, Maggie never knew what had happened to her first daughter as she was taken away from her at birth.

This book has more twisty moments in it than those country lanes in Lewes where it's set! Links to Virginia Woolf and her home in Rodmell? This is not your average thriller that's for sure.
It was compelling from the start - a woman wakesup from a coma to be told her daugher is dead and her husband gone. There's two reasons to keep reading right away, but then things take an altogether darker tone if that's possible and when you include links to a famous writer who committed suicide in a lake...and the daughter in the present day who is said to have died in water as well...this makes the claustrophobia of that hospitalroom spread across the Lewes countryside.

A study of the mind, what it means to recover memories and thoughts and work out what is real and what is not. It's an interesting take on a patient recovering their memory and working out what is going on!

And Rodmell's historical literary interest gets a modern twist

A thriller with a twist.
Maggie has been in a coma following an accident. When she wakes, her world has dramatically changed. She must now adjust to her new life by piecing together her old.
A very enjoyable read.

I loved this author's first book so couldn't wait to read this one. It's a gripping thriller with twists and mystery and I really felt for Maggie as she tried to piece together what happened the night her daughter lost her life.
I don't want to give too much away but this is highly recommended.

I read this book in 12 hours (and I was askeep for 8 of those) so that should say something about how gripped I was. I won’t go into too many details as the story is quite simple and I would hate to spoil it for any one. Maggie wakes up from a coma to find out her daughter is dead and her husband has left her. This is a sad story, with an even sadder back story, Maggie is likeable, despite the fact she is so broken, and readers will wonder about her apparent toe rag of her husband throughout the book. The end ties it all up in a bow - but did leave me wanting a little more! The romantic in me wanted a happy ending for Maggie! Would recommend this book, and look forward to more from this author.

I really loved this book! Excellent story with brilliant main characters. I would recommend this book.

A very gripping thriller! I enjoyed reading it a lot and am looking forward to see what the author comes up with next
