The skeleton of the story is an engaging one, but it went on way too long to keep my interest. Better editing needed IMHO.
I love just about any story set in the stormy, dark, and dreary Scottish Outer Hebrides as it‘s the perfect setting for mysteries and murders. This was a twisty mystery dealing with trauma, mental illness, family dynamics, and even a little possible reincarnation thrown in. I‘m usually really good at figuring stories out but this one threw me for a few loops, which I love! Really enjoyed the audiobook narrators as well! 🌟🌟🌟🌟
A real good atmospheric thriller/mystery set on a fictional island in the Outer Hebrides.
I adored Johnstone‘s debut novel, MIRRORLAND, so I was super excited to dive into one. It opens on 2/15, with Maggie‘s arrival on the isolated Isle of Kilmeray in the Scottish Hebrides. Determined to uncover truths while grieving her mother‘s death & recovering from her own breakdown, Maggie is a sympathetic heroine amongst the tempestuous weather, buried secrets & the edges of myth making it a thin place. Eerie & lovely, I couldn‘t put it down!
Review is up! This one is creepy.

The story moved rather slowly, and there was WAY too much build-up to both Robert and Maggie‘s backstories. The author kept including end-of-chapter cliffhangers, but she didn‘t give the reader any morsels of information that would help them guess what‘s next. It left me feeling frustrated and bored all at the same time. Rating: ⭐️⭐️
A soft pick. Decent thriller but I prefer Mirrorland
