Histoire
In the early hours of a summer morning, a young woman steps into the path of an oncoming bus. A tragic accident? Or suicide? At the center of this puzzle is Adrian Wolfe, a successful architect and grief-stricken widower, who, a year after his third wife's death, begins to investigate the cause. As Adrian looks back on their brief but seemingly happy marriage, disturbing secrets begin to surface. The divorces from his two previous wives had been amicable, or so it seemed; his children, all five of them, were resilient as ever, or so he thought.

Histoire
Melville Heights is one of the nicest neighborhoods in Bristol, England. It’s the sort of place where doctors and lawyers and old-money academics live. It’s not the sort of place where people get stabbed in the back 30 times with a kitchen knife in their own homes. Someone must have seen something. Newlywed Joey Mullen, for example, recently returned from four years of working in Ibiza. She and her husband, Alfie, are eager to find a place of their own in her hometown. But Joey finds herself distracted by the man next door, Tom Fitzwilliam.

Early one morning on the shore of the Thames, DCI Samuel Owusu is called to the scene of a gruesome discovery. When Owusu sends the evidence for examination, he learns the bones are connected to a cold case that left three people dead on the kitchen floor in a Chelsea mansion thirty years ago. Rachel Rimmer has also received a shock—her husband, Michael, has been found dead in the cellar of his house in France. All signs point to an intruder, and the French police need her to come urgently to answer questions about Michael and his past that she very much doesn’t want to answer.

A very in-depth, engrossing novel
The topic is fascinating and the characters developed well as the story went on. The loose ends were tied up well. Lisa Jewell writes very well. One criticism might be that the story is very drawn out and some day to day detail could be eliminated. This is the second novel I have read by this author and I will read more. Definitely recommend this book.

Great story but too many characters
I enjoyed the story very much but felt there were too many characters in it so that I forgot the stories of each individual character as the story progressed. But the story was great and enjoyable, despite that.

I always enjoy books by Lisa Jewell. This one was not as dark as some I've read by her, but there were a lot of surprises. It was awesome to visit all the different types of family in this book. I liked the diverse backgrounds of each character and how they eventually find a shared path.

Excellent Title
It took me awhile to get into this book since I couldn’t figure out how these characters could fit together and I wasn’t sure about the different voices. By a quarter of the way through I couldn’t put it down and loved it. I’m glad I stuck with it and am looking forward to reading yet another story by Lisa Jewel.
