Coming To Find You

I just finished Coming to find you by Jane Corry and here is my review.

Nancy is living the ultimate nightmare. Her mother and step-father have been murdered. The worst part, her step-brother has been convicted of the murders. Getting hounded by the press, Nancy flees to tall chimneys. The place has been rented out for years and Nancy hasn't been back there in a long time. The place belonged to her grandmother and holds its own war time secrets.

Someone manages to track her there and sends her a letter. They know the truth about that night and they will lay all her secrets bare.

I really liked the premise of this book. What I didn't know was that it straddled two timelines and honestly, they felt like two very different books. I didn't feel the kind of cohesion that books straddling two different timelines usually have. It felt unnecessary to jump to the past. It didn't serve the present day at all and took away from the thriller aspect of the book.

I didn't much care for any of the characters in the present timeline but I did quite like them in the past. It was quite a conundrum for me. It wasn't a bad book, just had some pretty glaring issues with it. It didn't stop me finishing it but I felt the end was quite predictable.

3.5 stars
