I've just finished it and loved it. I really couldn't put it down and had to feign illness so I could escape the kids to read it! Can't wait for her next book.

Yes I enjoyed it. Well written I thought and emotionally powerful at times.

I thought the denouement was a bit contrived but then I often feel the same about thrillers like this, it doesn't mean it's not good. It is. I've given it to dh to read next.

Yes, read it by fire and candlelight on our last camping weekend of the year!

I really enjoyed it - I have RL friends who are two sisters who lost their brother to CF, so it was very poignant.

I do wish though that publishers wouldn't print the 'notes for reading groups' in the back of books. I can see how they might be useful, but wouldn't it be enough to say 'Notes for reading groups are available on the publisher's website www.blahdeblah.com?

(Obviously I do realise that I'm not obliged to read them!)

Yes celtic, I didn't see the twist coming either. But the thing I loved most about the book was the relationshop between the sisters. Made me wish I had a sister....! But not a dead one obviously.

Great news, I have just bought it.

Finished! Very good book, would recommend it. I actually found myself catching my breath at the twist.

That's good to know, I'm about a quarter of the way through and still not sure what I think of it ...
