This mystery was so much fun to unravel, and I really enjoyed how it was presented from three different perspectives (two from present day and one from 22 years ago). I really liked Alice's character a lot, which is always a treat. It's really nice to have a heroine you can empathize with and root for.

It's definitely in the vein of a Liane Moriarty or Kate Morton book. It's set in London and the surround suburbs / coastal towns.
