I was really in the mood for something different to dive into and this fit the bill quite nicely. A gothic novel, murder mystery, family drama, on a remote little island? Sounds good to me. And it was. I liked getting both sisters points of view. I hated the tragedy of them never getting to meet. I enjoyed the pace and the writing style. Some of the plots were a bit predictable but the suspense in how they unfolded definitely made up for it.
