Description
A murder mystery with a twist... we know who the murderer is, but who is the victim?
As reporter Grace investigates the killing of a cyclist, memories of another murder begin to possess her - the murder she committed…
Trying to comes to terms with the crime she believes she has got away with, Grace starts writing her confession. In this twisty-turny domestic thriller, we find out the reasons for the crime of passion that took place on Grace’s wedding day. How each one of four possible victims pushed Grace to her limits, before she pushes one of them to his (or is it “her”?) death from the luxury cruiser where the wedding reception is being held.
Meanwhile, in the peaceful Surrey town where Grace works as a newspaper reporter, there are some strange goings on. Cats go missing, a cyclist dies, and it looks like these events could be connected to an old lady who befriends Grace, called Iris. Could there be two murderesses living within a few streets of each other?

Louise G, Reviewer
This is a beautiful book in so many ways. I suspect it is intended to be more light hearted and amusing than I took it to be - and, in a way, it was both of those things. But there is something deeply moving about the way the story unfolds and how Grace comes to terms with her truths. I loved the quirky characters and the way they interacted. I adored the writing style, which landed me smack in the middle of everything.
