Reviewed by Helen


Amy has grown up in The Clearing raised by her mother with a brother and a total of eleven young children they are schooled and trained by their minders and keepers, it is the only life she has known and then another young girl is bought in and things start to change this young girl does not fit in and then Amy’s life changes.

Freya lives near the river with her young son Billy, she likes to feel that everything in her life is normal and that her and Billy are no different from any other mum and son but when a young girl goes missing this has Freya sitting on edge, everything that she thinks is normal for her feels different now and then there is a visitor and the unthinkable happens and all of a sudden Freya’s life is turned upside down will she and Billy survive?

I have thoroughly enjoyed all of the books that I have read from this author and I read this older one for a challenge and so glad I did, it is filled with twists and turns, fabulous characters some good some not so good and had me turning the pages, I do highly recommend it to anyone who loves a good mystery, crime. Thriller.
