Another very good psychological suspense novel from Ware. I recently read Ware's latest novel, THE DEATH OF MRS. WESTAWAY and consider it a really great novel in the vein of Daphne Du Maurier. I have also read and enjoyed IN A DARK, DARK WOOD and THE WOMAN IN CABIN 10. This one falls kind of in the middle of the pack, not quite as good a WESTAWAY.
The novel is about four women who were friends back during their school days at a boarding school at Salten near the cliffs of the English Channel. One of the girls, Kate, lived in an old mill close to there with her father who taught art at the school and her step brother, Luc. One morning 15 years later the three friends -- Fatima, Thea, and Isa -- receive a text from Kate telling them that she needs them. The three women drop everything and travel to the old mill at Salten to find that a body has been discovered in the Reach by the sea near the mill. So why is this important to the women? Turns out that the women have been keeping a secret for years about a sinister event that resulted in them being expelled from school and about what happened to Kate's father. The novel has several twists and turns that keeps you guessing up to the end and overall, another enjoyable read from Ware. I'll be looking forward to her next novel.
