I finished this book and was absolutely speechless. It was absolutely amazing! Right from the beginning the story had a grip on me and I couldn't put it down. Michael Robotham is an absolutely tremendous writer as I found out today. This is technically book 4 of a series but I didn't realise and it held up perfectly as a standalone.

The plot was both heart-warming and heartbreaking, suspenseful and cosy. Topics that can be hard to write about realistically - mental health, refugees/trafficking, PTSD etc - were beautifully described and I honestly cried multiple times.

At times it felt like I was reading a life story.

I know I've given 5 stars multiple times, but I may need to reevaluate my rating system, otherwise this will have to be a 6 star.

I 100% recommend this!
