4*
A bit of a slow start had me struggling with this book but once it got going, wow.
The story sets scene in a superstitious and claustrophobic little Scottish island called Lon Haven.
Olivia has brought her three daughters here for work, what follows is a dip into the history of the island dating back to the witch hunts which slowly melts into the present in a very surprising way.
The main plot line of the story was not something I expected but found oddly satisfying and was pleased with the well rounded end.
The characters were described nicely and I warmed to one or two of them, especially Finn and Cassie.
Slow at first but then picking up the pace, this is a solid novel that’s worth a read.
