In Search for the meaning of Death. She'll find Life
Scarlett Blake returns to
Twycombe in Devon, ostensibly to find out why her seventeen year old sister, Sienna,
would take her own life. The place is
filled with memories of when Scarlett and Sienna were younger and would spend
the holidays with their grandparents at the beach resort. The bitter sweet
memories of this time remain but nestling under the surface are the dreams and
realities which threaten Scarlett’s peace of mind, and which, when she delves
further will shed light on rather more than Sienna’s untimely demise.
Aimed at young adults, this age–appropriate
story looks at life and love and of the consequences of our actions and how
they affect other people. Nicely written with a fine eye for detail, the author
has captured the mood of a place with dark secrets and yet, there is contrasting
light to the shade and it is peopled by characters that remain with you.
I am sure that young adult
readers who enjoy paranormal stories will find much to enjoy in this coming of
age novel.
My thanks to the author for sharing her work with me.
