more When Beatrice is summoned home to London from her cosmopolitan New York existence, it is because her younger sister Tess is missing. When Tess is discovered dead days later, the police rule it a case of suicide....and all of the evidence seems to point to exactly that. But Bee knows her sister better then herself...and insists that she would never take her own life. Despite her mother, fiancee, and authorities telling her to accept the truth, Bee is on a mission to find out who killed her sister...because she is certain that someone has. But in her search for the truth Bee may find herself closer to a monster than she could have ever imagined......
An interesting whodunnit that I kept reading to find out the truth....but I did not consider the novel to be a pageturner. The narrative itself was quite creative, however, with Beatrice telling the story to her deceased sister. Again, interesting, but not the "British phenomenon" that I expected.
