Description
There’s your side. My side. And the truth.
Lisa Jewell meets Jodi Picoult in a story of betrayal and deception in the aftermath of family tragedy.
She must face justice. As her sister it kills me to say it. As his mother I demand it.
When Jen Miller entrusts her youngest child to the care of her beloved sisters, she has no idea of the devastating tragedy that is about to unfold.
To celebrate her sister's wedding, global superstar Winter Kellaway throws the party of the decade at her luxurious beachside estate. The decorations are flawless. The champagne is on ice. The guests have arrived. But one misstep will have heartbreaking consequences that will rock this close-knit family to their core.
With her life in pieces, how can Jen ever begin to forgive?
Saul Anguish, a brilliant but tormented young detective, is called in to investigate and uncovers a long-buried and shocking family secret. As the trail takes a dramatic turn, they must now all face the truth that you can never truly leave the past behind . . .

Oh wow I just LOVED this book. Anything by Fiona Cummins is just brilliant, and this one did not disappoint.

I loved this gripping thriller exploring family secrets, relationships and the bond between sisters. Very well-written with relatable characters. The story, set in Midtown-on-Sea, features DS Saul Anguish, a character from previous novels.
Thanks to NetGalley and the publishers for an arc in exchange to an honest review.

New Cummins is always a reason to celebrate.
New Cummins with Saul is probably worth getting the wine out for 😁
So good to catch up with Saul, and to have a new mystery to get stuck into.
One in which Saul hovers around the perimeters of.
Three sisters, and their love, loyalty and how things fall when tragedy strikes.
There were some moving moments in this one for sure.
A very enjoyable read, that left me a bit "WHAT?????" at the end.
In a good way.

A story about shocking family secrets.
A gripping read from Fiona Cummins.
Well written characters and thrilling storyline.
My thanks to netgalley and the publisher for my copy.

Whoa. What a book! This book takes a few different time periods and then ties them together at the end. One consists of a family with an alcoholic father that loses his job. Another is three sisters and how they grew up together. We have a period that is these same sisters right now, and then Saul and Blue and how things have changed for them since the last book. When one of these sisters ends up on trial, secrets galore come to light! Holy cow! I never would have guessed how all these different stories tie together! Shocking shocking book!
