About this ebook
WILL YOU UNCOVER THE TRUTH?
A DEADLY DISCOVERY.
AN ISLAND WRAPPED IN SECRETS.
A tiny community is stunned when long-buried body is found.
For Stella Harvey the news is doubly shocking. The body has been uncovered in the garden of her childhood home - the home her family fled without explanation twenty-five years ago.
Desperate to unearth the truth, Stella returns to the isolated island. But the community she left isn’t as welcoming as she remembers – and people will go to any length to protect their secrets.
One thing rings true...
You can’t bury the truth forever.

A real puzzle which takes some time to unravel; a terrific read! Stella Harvey has fondest memories of her childhood years living on the island of Evergreen, only a short distance from the mainland but a completely different world and somewhat of a magic kingdom to children. But when a body is found practically in the garden of their former home, Stella feels the island pulling her back and she is desperate to find out if the deceased is known to her. But can you really ever go back? And is she prepared for what she may find out? A gripping read all the way through, I found myself reading faster and faster to find out where things were going. I was completely consumed with this one; the revelations come thick and fast once the story is in place and there is no way I could have guessed the final outcome. I did, however, wonder at the gullibility of the police - they appeared to accept things at face value and did very little digging of their own into the situation. This is very much Stella's tale. Overall, it was a very different and riveting read. Well-structured and quite straightforward to read, I did enjoy it and am happy to give 4.5*.
