Review
Two sisters, a child, and a family history shrouded in secrecy. As in the superb Asta's Book  pbk £7.99, Vine again presents us with a person who is obliged to confront her family's shocking past. The insights into relationships are as ever penetrating; the atmosphere full of dread, building up to a satisfying and surprising climax. Winner of several prizes, this has become a modern crime classic, and, for me at least, the standard by which psychological thrillers should be judged. - review by Dan Fenton
