Review of The House at the Edge of the Woods by Rachel Hancox

 

Ad-PR


Today is my stop on the Random Things blog tour for The House at the Edge of the Woods by Rachel Hancox.


Ben was only seven when his mother was murdered in the woods and he was waiting nearby in the car. It was an imaginable time, but now thirty years later he is married to Rebecca and living in a small cottage.


However, when Rebecca takes on a commission to paint a fairytale fresco for a business man, he begins to ask questions about Ben’s mother and the disappearance.


Suddenly, Ben is faced with questions he never could bring himself to ask before. Will the truth about that terrible time finally be revealed?


I really enjoyed this authors first book The Shadow Year and had been looking forward to reading this one. It did not disappoint. I found myself hooked from the first page trying to guess what had happened.


I highly recommend this!
