To The River
To The River | Vikki Wakefield
1 post | 1 read | 1 to read
How long can you hide the truth? The Kelly family has always been trouble. When a fire in a remote caravan community kills nine people, including 17-year-old Sabine Kelly's mother and sister, Sabine confesses to the murders. Shortly after, she escapes custody and disappears. Recently made redundant from marriage, motherhood and her career, journalist Rachel Weidermann has long suspected Sabine made her way back to the river — now, twelve years after the 'Caravan Murders', she has the time and the tenacity to corner a fugitive and land the story of the year. Rachel's ambition lights the fuse leading to a brutal chain of events, and the web Sabine weaves will force Rachel to question everything she believes. Vikki Wakefield's compelling psychological thriller is about class, corruption, love, loyalty, and the vindication of truth and justice. And a brave dog called Blue.

I doubt the similarities are intentional, but To The River really reminded me of Sadie by Courtney Summers – but a more mature version of the story, told for grown-ups. It‘s cleverly plotted and perfectly paced, building up to a denouement that doesn‘t over-egg the pudding. Full review: https://keepingupwiththepenguins.com/to-the-river-vikki-wakefield/
