4 posts | 3 read | 5 to read
Critically acclaimed author Alex Dahl explores how love can turn darkly sinister when a desperate mother looks to reconnect with her lost daughter in this riveting Norwegian set psychological suspense novel. Two mothers. Two daughters. One heart. When Alison's beloved daughter Amalie drowns, her world turns impenetrably dark. Alison tries to hold it together throughout the bleak Fall, but in the darkest days of the Norwegian Winter she completely falls apart. In another family, Amalie's passing is a new beginning. After years of severe health problems, young Kaia receives a new heart on the morning after Amalie drowns. Her mother Iselin has struggled to raise Kaia on her own and now things are finally looking up. She's even made an affluent new friend who's taken a special interest in her and her daughter. Alison knows she shouldn't interfere, but really, she's just trying to help Iselin and Kaia. She can give them the life they never had, and by staying close to them, she can still be with her daughter. Kaia is just like her, and surely, something of Amalie must live on in her. As her grief transforms into a terrifying obsession, Alison won't let anything stop her from getting back what she has lost.

This book was so great but the VERY end felt like they wanted it to be a suspense/thriller and so they did what they do. It was otherwise a great book about heartbreak and loss and the things we believe to get us thru. I could totally sympathize with Alison for everything she did. And how one little step led to the next. A few things were never fleshed out- like: when CPS got involved. The husband, Sindre- what ended up happening with him?

What a thrilling book. I wasn‘t sure how it would end but I kept hoping that Alison would get better. This is an interesting premise for a novel and the author does a great job bringing the characters and situation to life.
