I did find the plot had many similarities to other novels of this genre and I anticipated the resolutions.

I will never forget the day I came home from junior high school to find my mom waiting for me with one of the Harlequin novels from my stash. Initially I wondered where it was all going in terms of the storyline but once the first significant event happens, it was like a rollercoaster after that and a very enjoyable one. Following periods of living in Los Angeles and the South of France, she currently lives in Gloucestershire with her husband James, stepsons Michael and Luke, and mischievous dogs Coco and Lulu. He was, at heart, a despicable man and yet I have little difficulty imagining how terrible his loss must be for Hanna. Don't miss this utterly gripping and emotional thriller from Sunday Times bestselling author Susan Lewis!The plot is relatively easy to guess half way through, but nonetheless good story, good characters and an unusual premise.

I felt like I was watching the weekly episodes of a 70s soap opera, and I pictured them hitting their marks and swanning off to the next scene. There's a thread in the first half that I really didn't enjoy and I believe that a different vehicle could have been used to facilitate the storyline. I found it soooo hard to get into the first half of the book had me so mad almost to the middle of the book that I either wanted to scream or throw it at the mirror in the bathroom, that being the only safe mirror because it can shatter into the basin! Maybe the slow start as the reader is introduced to the seemingly idyllic Hanna who's wealthy job and loving marriage seems perfect from the outset. Susan Lewis fans will eat this one up, I would also recommend to those who like family sagas and complex characters where there is no black and white come the end.Following periods of living in Los Angeles and the South of France, she currently lives in Gloucestershire with her husband, James, and her dog, Mimi. You also get occasional chapters from Blanche, who is initially not connected to the story until the author ties everything together. She is also the author of Just One More Day and One Day at a Time, the moving memoirs of her childhood in Bristol during the 1960s. All of the characters are well fleshed, all very complex, Seb seemed the most straightforward and uncomplicated and the most likeable and dependable. With realistic, well-constructed, though not necessarily likeable characters this is another winner from the pen of Susan Lewis.
