Many thanks to publisher Boldwood Books for my spot on this Blog Tour.
20 years ago, Frankie’s brother died trying to save her from bad decisions. And that incident haunted her whole life, preventing her to be a good wife or mother. His death anniversary was approaching, and someone was hellbent on reminding her of things she wanted to forget.
My second book by author Nina Manning, the story was choppy with suspense interweaving it. The author kept the secrets well hidden behind a suspenseful film in most of the book, giving me just hints of it at opportune times. I kept trying to smoke out the hidden truths, but they held fast.
Slowly and surely as the danger increased, I got to know what really happened in that fateful day. And it was quite a shocker. The only niggle I had was the main character kept drinking to the point of having blackouts and losing time right until the last few chapters. Few questions felt unanswered.
Overall, I enjoyed reading the story of Frankie and her darkest fear.
I received a free ARC from NetGalley and the publisher, and this is my journey into its pages, straight from the heart!! STRICTLY HONEST AND UNBIASED.

One mother’s past could cost her everything…

Someone else remembers…
As the dark winter nights start to draw in, the 20th anniversary of her brother’s death looms and mysterious things start happening in Frankie’s life. Paranoid and distressed, she realises that perhaps her past really is out to haunt her…
Can she stop the secret from being uncovered before it’s too late?
