4.0 out of 5 stars
Fascinating but disturbing...,
By Ninian - lady of the books (Melbourne, Australia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Guilty Heart (Paperback)
Trawling through my bookshelf I stumbled across this last Saturday morning, and didn't remember even buying it! I'm glad I did.
This moving and disturbing story tells the tale of Owen Cassidy, an 8 year old who disappeared from his home one Halloween and was never seen again. It's about his father Nick, who has been in self-imposed exile from his wife Susan, who comes home for the 10 year anniversary of his son's disappearance. It's about Min, the rookie guard who has never forgotten her first major case, and her struggle following the unexpected death of her husband to cope with her job and her young twin sons. And it's about the other people affected by Owen's life and disappearance. I couldn't put this one down, finishing the book in the wee small hours of Sunday morning. Not a pleasant read, by any stretch of the imagination, as the subject matter is frank and disturbing. Adultery, lies, mental illness, child abuse, paedophilia and loss and sorrow. I'm busy hunting down more from this new to me author... |
