Blurb

A tragic family event reveals devastating news that rips apart Bella's comfortable existence. Embarking on a personal journey to uncover the truth, she faces a series of traumatic discoveries that take her to the ruggedly beautiful Cornish coast, where hidden truths, past betrayals and a 25-year-old mystery threaten not just her identity, but her life. Chilling, complex and profoundly moving, In Her Wake is a gripping psychological thriller that questions the nature of family - and reminds us that sometimes the most shocking crimes are committed closest to home.

 

Review

Yes I know I am very late to the party with this book and i've been saying for ages that I wanted to read it, but yet again, life got in the way! So I just had to take it on holiday this year (seeing as I bought it at Gatwick airport last year!).

Bella Campbell is going home to her parents to attend her mother’s funeral. Little does she know that this visit will change her life forever. 

Her father seems very distracted and tries several times to tell her something, but always puts it off. Bella thinks nothing of it until another devastating turn of events leaves her in turmoil and feeling she has nobody to turn to, not even her husband David, she decides she must find out who she really is and sets out on a life changing trip to the Cornish coast meeting people who will change her life forever and not always for the better…….

I really don’t want to say much more as I really don’t want to give any spoilers for anybody who hasn’t yet read it. It’s a wonderfully written asmospheric book that will literally leave you turning the page to read “just one more chapter”. A fabulous read that I am just mad at myself for not reading sooner.
