Engrossing\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n Marsh takes the reader on a thrilling journey in her latest as one woman unravels a family\u2019s lies, deceptions, and hidden secrets. It\u2019s been five years since Ria\u2019s husband Grayson Parker walked out on her and their daughter Shelley. Now working as a journalist, Ria comes across Parker family\u2019s buried secrets and as strange accidents begin to happen, it becomes clear that the Parkers have an enemy who want to destroy them at any cost. Trying to save the reputation of her ex in-laws\u2019 family, Ria discovers some shocking secrets and must do everything in her power to save her own daughter from a terrible fate. Marsh\u2019s prose lacks depth and the narrative drags at times. But the suspense element is strong as tension continues to rise with shocking secrets unraveling one by one. Marsh\u2019s characterization disappoints as the reader fails to connect with any of the characters, including the protagonists. Yet what makes this novel engaging is Marsh\u2019s ability to instill her story with a horde of twists, as well as a healthy dose of suspense. The book will appeal to fans of light domestic thrillers.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Engrossing\u2026 Marsh takes the reader on a thrilling journey in her latest as one woman unravels a family\u2019s lies, deceptions, and hidden secrets.
