Book Description:

As Riley works to uncover the truth, her discoveries will put into question everything she thought she knew about her family. Riley must decide what the past means for her present, and what she will do with her newfound reality, in this engrossing mystery from international bestselling author Diane Chamberlain.

My Review:
This book hooked me from the start and kept me twisting and turning until the very end. Riley MacPherson's life is not what she thought it was. After her father's death, Riley comes to understand that her whole life has been a lie. Deep family secrets come to light and she is desperately trying to uncover the truth. I found the characters to be intriguing but most of them were hard to like. The plot was very engrossing and it was hard to breakaway from this book until you found out all the secrets and followed Riley until she found her sister. The book is full of surprise after surprise and Diane Chamberlain did an excellent job pacing them throughout. I look forward to reading another book of hers and highly recommend this book to those who love books about family secrets.
