What a phone call to receive.
Jessica, Norah, and Alicia all received a call from a detective asking that they meet at their childhood home to discuss a discovery of bones under it.
Their childhood home was a foster home they lived in under the "loving" care of Miss Fairchild. In actuality, she wasn't loving. She was a task master and abusive.
We found out from each character in alternating chapters what went on at that house, and we then move to present day.
Miss Hepworth keeps you intrigued with the intense happenings from their childhood under the care of Miss Fairchild.
Present day was intense too as you will try as I did to figure out whose bones they were and what Miss Fairchild was planning to do them now when she showed up for questioning by the police about the finding.
Will you figure out whose bones they are?
Surprise after surprise - twist after twist - with the ending one being the best.
You won’t want to put the book down even though the chapters about their time in foster care are unsettling and upsetting.
This is Ms. Hepworth's best yet. 5/5
Thank you to the publisher for a copy of this book. All opinions are my own.
