"We both know this weekend away is a last chance to fix things. Or at least to try. He hasn't forgotten that."
This was a really fun thriller, honestly! Just one of those creepy and mysterious reads that kept me guessing most of the entire time. It's told from the point of view of both Adam and Amelia and interspersed with Amelia's letters that she writes to Adam each year on their anniversary (but does not let him read). We also have a third point of view, from a mysterious other character. How does everyone fit together? Enjoy trying to figure it out!
"My husband doesn't cheat on me with other women, or men, he has love affairs with their words."
Everyone is keeping secrets in this mystery, leading to a wild ride. The setting is amazing, a cold, dark, and snowy atmospheric Scotland that serves as another character in our twisty thriller. Every thing seems ominous and foreboding, as Adam and Amelia traverse the snowy countryside and mysterious house they are staying in.
Overall, this is a great and thrilling mystery, which keeps you guessing. It's a surprising page-turner, that also delves into the themes of marriage and writing. 4+ stars.
I received a free ARC of this book from Macmillan in exchange for an honest review.

Hyacinth’s story is very much how you would expect it to be from meeting her character in the other books, straight forward and to the point. We meet Gareth St. Clair and find out his secret that he will carry through the rest of the book very quickly, and we understand the exact reason why him and his father are estranged.
The relationship between Hyacinth and Gareth isn’t quite as frustrating as the ones that have come before, again very much in keeping with Hyacinth’s character, she sets her mind to it quite quickly after meeting him properly and it is obvious that she will manage to get her own way. But it is still fun to read all the same.
Throughout the book, we also have the mystery of Gareth’s grandmother’s diary and the problem of it being written in Italian (which of course Hyacinth knows and is more than happy to help try to translate) which adds more to the mystery and quite possibly why I couldn’t put this book down.
I also enjoyed that rather than it be letters that started the chapters, it was like reading a book in a book about the actions of them. I can only presume that this idea came from the off handed comment from Lady Danbury when Hyacinth was reading to her one day, that they should in fact write their own book. It was quite clever and meant that some parts of the book could be quite neatly summed up with these parts and the story could be quickly moved on.
I am definitely enjoying this series, and although I want to read the final two books as soon as possible, I think I will be sad when I finally do finish them!
