We All Have Secrets by Jane Corry
I was given an ARC of this book, which has been described as a domestic thriller – spot on!
I was immediately drawn into this story about Emily, a complex character infused with guilt, compassion and hurt. Then there’s Francoise, a beautiful young woman who was now taking care of Emily’s father...
The plot was about the secrets and the thoughts and feelings of Emily and Francoise. As each POV is recognised, the story unfolded and the secrets were revealed.
The writing style was great, with enough descriptions to bring a sense of place, while its pace steamed along, bringing with it insight into relationships and how secrets can fester life.
I thoroughly enjoyed this story. I liked how the secrets were brought into the light. I liked the writing style and how it switched from Emily to Francoise. Yes, it was sad and disturbing in parts, and yet, that’s life.
Overall, for me, this was a five-star read.
Recommended.
