I found myself skimming over her chapters, trying to get through her groveling as quickly as possible. Life is good in the family as Jess fits in well, then James and Emily go out to a New Year's Eve party, leaving Jess to babysit Daisy. Jonah Sheens is at the pub with his daughter Milly, enjoying nice weather, a rare moment of quiet from his infant and a pint, when a young girl wanders onto the grounds. Colman tells her class that they are going to adopt a grandparent, she adopts a grandmother and now has five.

She used goes to reason where I'd have used stands to reason, born was used and not borne and the second a wasn't needed here-"She'd had a few a blips" and purposely was used and not purposefully. As we leave the clean light of the kitchen and pass through the dining room, I glance back at Emily and James, now seated around the family table with two other officers, a photograph of Daisy placed starkly in the space between them. It becomes clear relatively early in the book who is responsible for Daisy's disappearance but the growing understanding of the sisters and their convoluted relationship holds the novel together. I want to feel more, but I can’t, my senses deadened by the impact of the fall, my thoughts and emotions slow to respond. She nurses her quiet drab life, keeping memories of a tumultuous earlier time at bay, until one stray remnant of that old life knocks on her front door.
