Resumen del Editor

A spellbinding novel about an unspeakable secret that could destroy a family, from the New York Times bestselling author of Finding Emma.

Elle is a survivor. She’s managed to piece together a solid life from a childhood of broken memories and fairy tales her mom told her to explain away bad dreams. But weekly visits to her mother still fill Elle with a paralyzing fear she can’t explain. It’s just another of so many unanswered questions she grew up with in a family estranged by silence and secrets.

Elle’s world turns upside down when she receives a deathbed request from her grandfather, a man she was told had died years ago. Racked by grief, regrets, and a haunted conscience, he has a tale of his own to tell Elle: about her mother, an imaginary friend, and two strangers who came to the house one night and never left.

As Elle’s past unfolds, so does the truth - if she can believe it. She must face the reasons for her inexplicable dread. As dark as they are, Elle must listen…before her grandfather’s death buries the family’s secrets forever.

I enjoyed this story and have added Steena Holmes to my selective, yet distinguished list of favorite authors! I look forward to many more of her books!

Heartstrings

This book had me by the heart strings the whole time. Perhaps it was the voice of David which sounded so heavy with pain. I didn’t want to put it down till I got to the end. Great read!

The narrators were brilliant in this.

What do you do when you know that you're dying and have secrets to tell.?

Not what I was expecting!

I had trouble putting this down! The story is very enjoyable and kept me on my toes. Some parts were a little long and drawn out, I felt this could’ve been a few chapters shorter.
