Anna’s father killed himself. Seven months later, so did her mother. Now, on the anniversary of her mother’s death, Anna receives a note implying that it might not have been suicide.
The book shifts between several perspectives. Anna and retired police officer, Murray, are the main ones. It also varies between present time and flashbacks. There is minimal indication when they are discussing the past. There were a couple times I had to reread what was going on because the flashback confused me a bit.
Overall, I liked the story. I think it is well written and everything ties together nicely.
