My review:

17 years ago, Camille, was brutally murdered and Lana’s testimony put her boyfriend, Xav’s, brother, Sebastian, away for his murder, which instantly torn them apart. Now Lana heads back to Mead House to clean out her grandma’s things after her sudden death. Twin brother, Ollie, and his new fiance, Elise, join in, but not so willingly.

Who is the mysterious ‘G’? The author expertly gives us quite a few likely suspects. Could it be George ~ the gardener, Greg ~ Ollie’s friend, Graham ~ the vicar, Godfrey ~ the 80 year old greengrocer, AnGus the beloved town doctor, or is Trudy short for Gertrude, maybe, Bree ~ short for Gabriella? Gah, so many options and I loved trying to figure it out. The journey to find out who killed 19 year old, Camille was quite a suspenseful one.

There are a bunch of POV’s to keep track of, but overall, a fantastically executed psychological thriller. If you haven’t read Keri’s work before I highly suggest you do so.

Book blurb:

Mead House was once our childhood home.

Despite my fears, I always knew we would have to return to face the demons of our past.

Back to the place where it happened, to where, as carefree teenagers, we lost our elder sister in the most brutal of circumstances.

As executors of our grandmother’s will, my twin brother, Ollie, and I needed to empty the house for resale.

What I didn’t expect to discover was my sister’s secret journal that contained her most private thoughts and shocking dark secrets.

Now I am questioning everything that I saw that night. Did I get it wrong, who I saw?

Did my evidence send an innocent man, my then boyfriend’s brother, to jail for the last 17 years?

I know I have no choice. If I want to find answers, I will have to go back to that fateful night my sister died. When she made her last visit to the summer house.
