Amazon Editorial Review

Nothing can break the bond between sisters ...When Beatrice gets a frantic call in the middle of Sunday lunch to say that her younger sister, Tess, is missing, she boards the first flight home to London. But as she learns about the circumstances surrounding her sister's disappearance, she is stunned to discover how little she actually knows of her sister's life - and unprepared for the terrifying truths she must now face. The police, Beatrice's fiance and even their mother accept they have lost Tess but Beatrice refuses to give up on her. So she embarks on a dangerous journey to discover the truth, no matter the cost.

I read this a few years ago and really enjoyed it.

This was a very interesting read. An unusual type of book for me but I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Beatrice or Bee gets a call to tell her that her pregnant sister is missing. Bee lives in New York and gets the first flight home to London. A few days later she finds out her sister is dead.

A verdict of suicide is recorded but Bee refuses to believe that this is the case and goes on the hunt for her sisters murder. This book is what happens in the lead up to find a murderer. And its very, very good.

I could empathise with Bee, she has been very close to her sister so knows that her sister is not someone who would commit suicide. She loved life. She finds out that her sisters baby died 2 days before her death. Her sister was treated with a new gene therapy as her baby had cystic fibrosis and it was deemed to cure CF in the womb. She wonders if this has anything to do with her sisters death. Everyone believes that the verdict of suicide is correct including, Bee's mother, fiancé and the police. The relationship between Bee and Tess is somewhat beautiful. You get to know Tess, even though she has died.

Its rather difficult to elaborate more on this book without spoiling it for future readers. But the ending was very good and felt left open to interpretation. I'll looks for more books by this author.
