A grieving mother, Rose who didn't accept that her daughter died from drowning without a body found, then went to Guatamela to investigate. Her daughter, Jules who wanted to follow her passion for writing and applied a job to a Memoir writer named Eva. As Rose gets closer to the truth, the stakes get even higher. Can she find out the truth behind Jules presumed drowning and survive? or Will she be like Jules that ended up drowning in a far away home place of Guatamela.
What I like about this book is that the introduction of each characters was done well, and the plot is good but I was not satisfied with the ending I wanted more revelations. And a lovely place like Guatamela was not highlighted more. But overall I like the mystery part of the book.
Thank you to NetGalley, RB Media and the author for an ARC audiobook of this book. ...more
