The plot keeps you guessing throughout as you are trying to piece together how the storylines are related. I liked how it all came together. The ending felt satisfying with everything resolved. There was one main twist that was interesting and connected the characters together. However, the reveal was missing that “but wait there’s more” aspect that adds layers. Rushing after Buell to save Emma, Anna struggles with her fear in the rain. She unexpectedly finds a severely wounded Buell and Neil dead, murdered by Emma, the true mastermind. Anna now becomes Emma's target as Emma reveals that she stabbed her father because she disliked his ventriloquism. She stabbed Lisa for not buying chocolates from her, and framed Anna. She also killed her pregnant mother because she did not want a sibling, and her teacher, whom she disliked. After a bloody fight, Anna kills Emma in self-defense and Douglas arrives. At the hospital, Lane and Carol apologize to Anna for not believing her. Days later, Anna allows Buell, who survived, to continue living in her attic. Sloane hosts a successful exhibition and receives a job offer in New York. Douglas and Anna are reconciled in the rain, as he buys her painting. One year later, Anna, who has a newborn daughter with Douglas, takes a flight to New York to visit Sloane. She finds an apparently dead woman on the flight; the steward claims there has been no one as the body vanishes, leaving Anna to delve into another mystery. Shirley says: " It’s the human condition to be curious. People are interested in the sad and the bad things that happen in life. But the thing about our story is that Claudia goes to extremes – she goes to a point where her interested could be dangerous!" Aguilar, Matthew (January 26, 2022).

Overly friendly neighbour Joanne is initially at the heart of the community search for Emily. But the harsh way she treats her disabled son, Simon, and her strange collection of life-like dolls leads Claudia to suspect her involvement in Emily’s disappearance.

I found the whole plotline ridiculousy far fetched, I didn't particularly like any of the characters either.

Craig says: "George is recently separated from an unhappy marriage. He’s a good, loving dad, who’s trying to make a new start. He doesn’t know that many people in the area, but he begins a friendship with Claudia that turns, he believes, into a sort of relationship."When she hears about a local girl, Emily Winter, who has gone missing she seizes her opportunity to become a hero and make some friends. Soon Claudia becomes embroiled in the case and grows fixated on uncovering the truth. But not only is she determined to find out what happened to Emily, she's also becoming obsessed with the Winter family at the center of the case — Emily’s devastated father Owen, her cold mother Sabine, and her 12-year-old brother, Dean. The story felt, to me, fairly gentle really, despite dealing with some very serious and important themes (which I won't list here so as not to spoil any of the story). It's a nice, easy read and will definitely appeal to anyone who likes novels set in this time period, or historical fiction in general. I tend to read novels with a bit more 'bite' and grit to them, so this made a nice change for me.
