I really liked the plot of this novel, an investigative author who goes to a small town to research and write about an old orphanage where abuse and a possible murder occurred. While those connected to the past begin mysteriously dying.

What made me really struggle with this book was the main character, Alex. She was a very unlikeable character to me. In short, I found her annoying.

4/15

A chilling read that has the main character, Alex, doing book research about what happened to a boy who lived at the Coram House Orphanage.

Alex‘s safety comes into question as bodies of those who had been at the Orphanage show up.

Is Alex getting herself into more than writing a book - like investigating murders?  

An excellent debut fans of thrillers.

A good twist at the end. P5/5

Out 4/15/25. A true crime writer in need of a second chance agrees to ghost write a book about the abuse that took place at an orphanage. Accounts vary but she is sure there is more to uncover. The more she digs the more the past creeps into the present, murders included. This was a really absorbing debut with a flawed but strong main character and a mystery that wouldn‘t let me rest until it was solved. Highly recommend.
