My Review
What I loved about this story...
I really cannot explain to you how much I enjoyed this story. What I loved the most was the suspense in this book. At the start you have Angus and Sarah Moorcraft who are the parents of twins, one of whom died and one lived. As the story progresses, you see each of the mum, dad and surviving twin trying to come to terms with the loss of the other twin and when the surviving twin makes a claim that she is not in fact the twin they thought she was, things get turned upside down. There are a lot of what ifs in this story and I think every thought imaginable came into my head when trying to figure out what on earth was going on. Along with the suspense, there is also a creepy aspect of it which I won't explain too much as I don't want to spoil the story.
This is such a great first novel by this author and I am definitely looking forward to more books by this author.
