SYNOPSIS -
Sisterhood binds them. Trauma defines them. Will secrets tear them apart?

Leah's perfect marriage isn't what it seems but the biggest lie of all is that she's learned to live with what happened all those years ago. Marie drinks a bit too much to help her forget. And Carly has never forgiven herself for not keeping them safe.

Twenty years ago The Sinclair Sisters were taken. But what came after their return was far worse. Can a family ever recover, especially when not everyone is telling the truth...?

This is an intriguing read, with characters weaving a web of lies and deceit. 

The Novel starts off with the abduction of 3 young sisters, Carly and younger Sisters, twins Leah and Marie. It moves in chapters, between the past and the present, from the voice of each girl. The Author has blended the chapters really well. 

I loved Carly's character. She seemed wise beyond her years. She was strong, on the whole, yet somehow vulnerable. She thought on her feet, and was very protective of her Sisters. 

It was good how the Author showed the way in which each of the characters in the adult years, were dealing with the trauma they had suffered during the abduction. Each dealt in vastly different ways; three completely opposite characters, especially the twins, who were nothing alike. 

There was so much mystery involved. Many questions needed answering. Who was the abductor? Why were they abducted? What was the source of the mystery notes? You literally don't find any of this out right until the end of the book, and all the theories I had were completely wrong! There is much more intrigue in the book, but I don't want to add any spoilers. 

I had to keep reading and just couldn't put the book down. Its a very well written novel that makes you feel for the characters and keep you guessing. 

Thanks to NetGalley and the Publisher for allowing me to review this.
