Great read by Amanda Jennings - set in Cornwall the tale of two families,one family coming through the devastating tragedy of loosing a loved one...the other family whose holiday home is The Cliff House are wealthy & 'seem' to have it all - it's the summer of 1986 & both families paths will cross. It's a real page turner that had me hooked.

Oh wow, I really enjoyed this one! Deliciously tense and gripping from the start. I would definitely recommend this!

Well this was an unsettling read! A childish obsession with rich neighbours turns into something more. She's upset yet curious of the 'posh' family who take up residence in the rental villa - the Cliff House - where her mother cleans. The daughter of the family soon becomes a friend but she is the black sheep of the family. The mother on the other hand is very demanding and act and theren there's the father...what a bunch they turned out to be!

The writing is luscious and really brings summers on the beach to the front of your memories. I remember when I used to look at posh beach side houses and imagine who lived there. Still do sometimes if I'm honest. The visits to the house, the ever increasing obsession of the girl to the Cliff House and the people inside.

Nicely written and very tense in places. The writing is very evocative of nice seaside holidays and beach walks, taking in Sennen Cove, Botallack, St Just and Gwynver Beach which is a lovely journey around the rugged Cornish coast. The crashing waves, the high Cliff House hanging on the edge of the cliff - bit like the action in the book. You never know what's going to happen next and it builds a disturbing sense of foreboding.

Next time I see a cliff house for real, I'm going to wonder!
