Firstly I need to say that I received an advance copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. My sincere thanks go to Readers First, the publisher and the author for this gift.
The synopsis of this book really grabbed me, it is as follows…..

They never found Leah Parata. Not a boot, not a backpack, not a turquoise beanie. After she left me that day, she vanished off the face of the earth.

A close-knit community is ripped apart by disturbing revelations that cast new light on a young woman's disappearance twenty-five years ago.

After years of living overseas, Emily returns to New Zealand to care for her father who has dementia. As his memory fades and his guard slips, she begins to understand him for the first time - and to glimpse shattering truths about his past.

Are some secrets best left buried?

This was a heart rending tale that is thought provoking and compelling.
