Just when you think you've got the story pegged and realise you have another 20% to go. 

Absolutely fantastic read, I honestly struggled to out it down. Read it in two sittings. Loved both Emma and Leo's povs, plus the back and forth between then and now. Emma was a very complex character, and whilst I can see why things played out the way they did, it was very interesting to see how Janice wove her story too, and how it affected Emma.

I did guess the connection fairly on, but had no idea of how it would all come together. Very well written, and I'm sure it's one I'll continue to think about for a while.
