Deep in the heart of London, in a lush communal square, as a festive garden party is taking place, a thirteen year-old girl lies unconscious and bloody in a hidden corner. What really happened to her? And who is responsible?

So Lisa Jewell's writing is great. Good writing.
However, these are very much more unsettling family dramas than thrillers in my opinion. With a very common theme of neglectful mother's throughout all the books I've read.
Not something I can really binge read so I'm going to take a bit of a break before trying to tackle more of her backlist.
This one in particular really didn't work for me. I found it boring and the ending really unsatisfactory.
This was average, but I liked how cozy the writing felt. The end surprised me a little, but it didn't give enough suspense to get there.
This was so disappointing. I skimmed through a lot of the boring filler and rolled my eyes at the annoying red herrings. Lisa is usually a great author, but this one was terrible.
