| "How lucky were they? A heat wave in the middle of the school holidays, exactly where it belonged..." (from the first line) This new novel from award-winner Atkinson is a breathtaking story of families divided, love lost and found, and the mysteries of fate. As Private Detective Jackson Brodie investigates three cases, startling connections and discoveries emerge.
Annotation:
Thirty years later, Olivia Land's two sisters continue to mourn her disappearance. Theo Wyre's daughter, Laura, is murdered by a crazed maniac with a knife. And young Michelle Fletcher, who has a new baby and an unsympathetic husband, picks up an axe one day and wreaks some havoc. As detective Jackson Brodie investigates them, these three "case histories" begin to intertwine in his mind, and to shed light upon each other.
