Psychological thriller about second home owners
Journal Entry 2 by QuincyW at Cafe 130 in Templestowe, Victoria Australia on Monday, November 4, 2024
A rising tide of resentment towards second-home owners goes from small acts of criminal damage to something more menacing.
Caught at today's meet-up.
Louise Candlish has tackled an up-to-the-minute issue prevalent in many societies and woven it into a gripping domestic thriller. The story opens with quite an explosive bang and then takes a slow burn method to unveil a web of secrets, lies, dangerous acts, criminal activities, desire, mistrust and hatred. What rises above all else is the problems associated with the housing crisis, second home ownership and wealth distribution. A compelling read.
