Thank you, NetGalley, for this book.
I LOVE Catriona Ward’s books. Little Eve, Sundial, and the absolutely amazing The Last House on Needless Street are all excellent books. It’s to the point that Ward is an auto-read for me. Any book of hers, I’ll be checking out. Because her books are so twisty in brilliant ways.
Wilder finally makes friends when he visits a vacation town, but their lives will be twisted together forever when tragedy strikes. Fast forward to college when Wilder is forced to revisit the trauma. And then again as a middle-aged man going back to this town to write his memoir. This plot sounds basic, but oh it’s not. Not even close. It’s a story within a story within a story, on and on. I can’t explain much due to spoilers, but you will never guess where the story goes next. Once again, Ward wrote a book that I could not put down and couldn’t wait to see the next twist.
