For Lily Ormond, that moment came late one night when she answered a knock on the door and discovered that while she'd been smashing garlic and rosemary and watching the soaps, her sister Alison had drowned. Coming to terms with losing her only sibling and best friend was devastating, becoming a mother overnight to Ali's three-year-old son Charlie was mind-boggling, but discovering that her identical twin had been leading a secret life for years was almost Lily's undoing...And so begins a journey linked with four men who'd been part of a life she hadn't even known existed. A journey that forces Lily to come to terms with a father who'd never really cared for her, a child who needs her too much and a sister who wasn't what she seemed.

A few years ago, you wouldn't have caught me reading an Anita Notaro book for love or money. I thought they were for old people and I didn't want to be seen reading one. Eventually my mum persuaded me to read one and I am so glad that I did because her books were funny, easy to read and just a great story.

Clever concept skillfully narrated, suitably ambiguous ending. Occasionally too clever, too neat.

Exceptional writing Not his best work

Wonderfully written, interesting, poetic, I want more......

Brilliant storyline, believable characters and an engrossing plot worthy of a modern classic You won't want it to end

Seems to be well-researched, the ealry history of Ireland is interesting. Poor character development, weak historical point of view, not particularly engaging.

new idea unlike anything else none
