I found this an enjoyable and well-paced read with a good degree of suspense. I enjoyed the gradual build-up of the plot although I suspect that to anyone involved in the type of work on which the plot hinges, it would be pretty implausible. The warmth and relationship between the sisters gives an overall warm vibe to the book and I thought the way that Bee, the older sister, starts to take on some of Tess’s attributes was well-drawn and convincing. Overall, an entertaining read.
